OP Well that's a better synopsis than I could have ever written.
It's a great movie, and as the description above implies, wit and language are central to the film, although it isn't about using unusual words. But quick-witted wordplay is one of the major elements. The fact that the leading lady is breathtakingly gorgeous has nothing to do with my recommendation, honest.
Keep in mind that it is in French with subtitles. Some people hate subtitled movies the way I hate fried okra. I'd rather not share some of the more memorable lines from the film as it might spoil the whole experience for you.
Anyway, I was hoping people would suggest their favorite language oriented films for my own edification.
