Synopsis: A divorced and single parent, Eva spends her days enjoying work as a masseuse but dreading her daughter's impending departure for college. She meets Albert - a sweet, funny and like-minded man also facing an empty nest. As their romance quickly blossoms, Eva befriends Marianne, a new massage client. Marianne is a beautiful poet who seems "almost perfect" except for one prominent quality: she rags on her ex-husband. Suddenly, Eva finds herself doubting her own relationship with Albert as she learns the truth about Marianne's ex. | |
Review: The story starts fine, showing middle-class people behaving quite realistically in a party. Then I had the impression of seing lots of characters behaving and talking with the same distance to humans, to humanity and to feelings as Meursault, the character of L'étranger (The stranger) by Albert Camus. But instead of putting this as topic of the movie, the movie takes only the pseudo-romance as story, and even has a pathetic happy end. The acting of the actors was quite good but their roles were not interesting (to me). This movie is not for me. | |
