Query: Great satire of french society

This movie is packaged as a silly insight into french society during the 1970s, but it does more than that. It offers a critique of the assumptions that society relied upon to treat women in the manner they did. In doing so, the movie uses a light hearted script and excellent cast to weave the tale of a poor housewife who is not taken seriously by anyone, but her son and one time lover. The movie reveals how she fights these assumptions and is able to overcome the low expectations people place upon her. But it does not do it too seriously and still makes its point. All in all, a very good movie.
