The Mystery of Henri Pick (French: Le Mystère Henri Pick) is a 2019 French comedy film directed by Rémi Bezançon, based on the novel of the same name by David Foenkinos.
Plot: The film follows a literary critic as he investigates the mysterious author of a newly-published novel that has become a literary sensation, Last Hours of a Love Story. After a young publisher, Daphné Despero (Alice Isaaz), finds the novel in a library for rejected books in Brittany, she searches for the supposed author, Henri Pick, but finds out from his wife, Madeline Pick (Josiane Stoléru), and his daughter, Joséphine Pick (Camille Cottin) that he is a recently deceased owner of a former pizza shop. A popular television-show literary critic, Jean-Michel Rouche (Fabrice Luchini), thinking it impossible that a simple pizza-maker from Brittany could have written a literary masterpiece, takes on the role of a detective and, with the help of Joséphine Pick, he explores the mystery of the novel's true authorship ...
