wikipedia
The worst thing about this otherwise terrific show is its title, as it poorly represents material that is neither crass nor full of cussing. Non-native speakers of a language tend not to feel the weight of its curse words: to them, something that would sound horrendously out of place to a native often has a playful ring. This well-known phenomenon must have been at play when the title was chosen. And the fact that motherhood is one of the show's recurring themes.
This was the first time I watched Florence Foresti, and I loved her. Not only is she sharp as a whip, she has a powerful command of physical comedy, so that laughter is triggered by her movements as much as by her words.
I look forward to watching more of her shows.

After watching
Mother Fckr, I was eager to try other shows by Florence. On this one, her first DVD release, she is not yet quite as accomplished a performer. The set has some long moments (such as the
encore skit) and it is not a laugh fest, but it is definitely worth watching as it does have several brilliant skits and should have you smiling throughout.

Florence Foresti: Madame Foresti

imdb: 7.5
When a friend told me about Florence Foresti, I had completely forgotten that I had watched and enjoyed her earlier shows—so reading my own reviews excited me in anticipation for her latest set. There is no doubt that Florence is still an outstanding performer (I love how expressive she is) but the material didn't work for me: a few chuckles but no laughs. Some of the themes: turning 40; Twitter, animals, being a mother. You might like it.
