Paulette Van Der Beck y su marido dirigen una escuela para amas de casa. Su misión es formar a adolescentes para que se conviertan en las esposas perfectas. Tras la repentina muerte de su marido, Paulette descubre que la escuela está al borde de la bancarrota. En mayo de 1968 comienza a cuestionarse sus creencias. Reunida con su primer amor, André, y con la ayuda de su excéntrica hermanastra Gilberte y la estricta monja Marie-Thérèse, Paulette une fuerzas con sus alumnas para superar su estado de supresión y convertirse en mujeres liberadas.

How to Be a Good Wife has at first glance an enticing premise and a really promising cast of three typologically completely different actresses: Juliette Binoche, Yolande Moreau, and Noémie Lvovsky, but it all falls apart due to a futile story and untapped potential, both in the characters and the setting, which is a real shame. The message framing is obvious and could easily have found its place in today's glut of feminist-themed films, but I still felt it could have been made in a more lively and humorous way. The final dance and music number had its charm, but it didn't fit the concept of the film at all. Better two stars!
