Gerwig and the roommate she's closer to are on the couch watching a French movie offscreen when the roommate (guy from Girls) comes home (w/ a girl?) - did anyone recognize what movie they were watching? I don't speak French.
shareI also would like to know that!
thanks!
Les quatre cents coups (1959)
Dialogue from the film is heard when Frances and Benji watch it on TV

They are watching "Un conte de Noël" ("A Christmas Tale") by Arnaud Desplechin. (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0993789/)
The dialogue is between the character Henri and his girlfriend, after the big fight in the kitchen. Henri tells her to come back at a better time:
"Tu veux voir la photo de ma première communion? La première fois que je me suis battu à l'école? Excuse-moi, mais ce sont des fêtes ratées. Ma soeur qui me chie dans les bottes, Junon qui se casse à l'hôpital dans trois jours... Tu viendras une autre fois plus heureuse. S'il te plaît, fous le camp. Prends les clés de ma voiture, et dégage."
