Plot

My Best Friend (2006 film) Mon meilleur ami 2006 IMDb

François (Auteuil) is a middle-aged, art-dealer Parisian who thinks he has everything. After telling a story at dinner about a funeral he attended where only a handful of people turned up, his colleagues suggest that no-one would go to his funeral. He may be materially rich, but he has no friends. Everyone at the dinner table starts to antagonise him about having no friends but François says that he does have friends (but he has only clients). His business partner Catherine (Gayet) challenges him to a bet: Francois must introduce his best friend within 10 days, or lose a valuable object, his antique Greek vase (worth 200,000 euros).

The bet is accepted. François has ten days to find a friend. As François travels through Paris in a taxi, revisiting old acquaintances who all reject him, he meets a trivia-loving taxi driver, Bruno (Boon). As the two spend an increasing amount of time together, a friendship slowly starts to form. However, François's desire to win the bet threatens to destroy the best friendship he has ever had. But in the end, Bruno's appearance on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, thoughtfully and surreptitiously arranged by François, is a success, and brings the two together, as friends.
