Cast

Title

The title translates as Black suits you well, but the two words te and vous make the form of address ambiguous. In French, both the words te and vous mean you. The word te is used when referring to close friends or family in informal situations while vous is used in formal situations, such as to a stranger or a business colleague. This is known as the T–V distinction.
