B B.

both characters are charming and flawed. they manage to escape themselves long enough to find they actually care about one another. it's a nice little fim.

I don't think that you have to have a penchant for foreign films to appreciate this film. I loved this movie--both actors are excellent!!

I loved this movie. very easy watch, both reno and binoche excel as being both likable and at times irritating/human/weird take your pick. The movie does a smart job making subtle and some not so subtle comments on France, and the US; there are some pretty good one-liners throughout as well. The story is pretty typical boy/girl stuff but told in a way thats not always predictable and not too sappy until the end (which by then i was ok with). easily worth spending a few hours to sit down and watch some random night.
