An Amazing Couple (French: Un couple épatant); also known as (Trilogy: Two) is a 2002 French-Belgian film written and directed by Lucas Belvaux.
This is the first installment of a series Trilogy, which constitutes a comedy followed by One: On the run, a thriller and Three: After life, a melodrama. In Uk the distribution company altered the order of the trilogy placing the second film as the first one.
Belvaux referred in the DVD commentary that main idea behind Trilogy is that the main characters in a particular story are the secondary characters of others, in such sense the three films happen at the same time and share a series of common scenes and plot points, complementing each other, but also have their own perspective and style. The audience is left with piecing the films together, which Belvaux avoided, since editing the three films into one single narrative would have resulted in a very long film with no style of its own.
