The Review on Le Hérisson: Never Too Late To Love (1)

To most people, hedgehog is not an ideal pet as it doesn’t like cat or dog which can please their owner. In fact, hedgehog is a strange but ultimately beautiful creature. 

Yesterday, I watched a film named Le hérisson. It is written by Muriel Barbery. Le hérisson means the elegance of the hedgehog.



The story happens in an upper class building. Through the camera of an 11 year old girl, she gave her insightful observations of her parents and neighbors. This movie is like a philosophy of life which inspired me a lot, especially about the attitude of love.

Among all the characters in the novel, Renee, a 54 year old resident janitor of the building, impressed me deeply.
