Lebowitz vs Lebowitz

2016 · 2 seasons

A sharp, bittersweet French dramedy about rivalry and reinvention, watching two women spar is both tense and oddly satisfying.

Overview: Paule is a brilliant 50-year-old lawyer who has dedicated her life to the firm she created with her ex-husband, Simon Lebowitz. Her life changes the day she discovers that Simon has secretly remarried with Irene, a partner of 20 years younger than she had recruited herself. And when Simon died suddenly of a heart attack, Paule and Irene found themselves inevitably bound to lead the Lebowitz cabinet. Two big rivals. A proper chignon crepe to get their share of Simon's legacy.
