Plus, because we don't associate the Mothers Death with the daughters birth right away (the film does that deliberately I think) we are left thinking she is just running away from her boyfriend because she doesn't want to get hurt. If they associated that with the death of the mother earlier, the suspense would have added a very interesting twist. And I agree about the relationship with the daughter as you say. <br /><br />Anyway - its all fun to think about. I still think it is much better than Peggy Sue Got Married, which it is obviously using as its source material.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00597866901901238462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-556159764413551252.post-21020740377276724482013-03-11T15:03:26.889-07:002013-03-11T15:03:26.889-07:00Thanks for checking in, Lisa.

You know, thinking back, the relationship established between Camille and her daughter was very well done for the limited screen time they had together at the beginning of the film. There was genuine chemistry in that scene. But I felt the strength of that emotional strand diminished the further the flashback dragged on.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00597866901901238462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-556159764413551252.post-59976862514203314092013-03-08T04:47:20.324-08:002013-03-08T04:47:20.324-08:00Well, I saw this tonight and I enjoyed it much mor...Well, I saw this tonight and I enjoyed it much more than I expected to. Your review is excellent BT. I think You're right on the money. I think the very interesting twist on this back to the future thing is the "choice" she has to make between her mother and her daughter. For me that gave poignancy to all those running away from the lover scenes, and gave the film an added depth and a strange unexpected suspense that I thought was very well done. Thanks again for a great review.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00597866901901238462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-556159764413551252.post-51320973838529124452013-02-19T20:42:01.820-08:002013-02-19T20:42:01.820-08:00There's a couple of French comedies on my list...There's a couple of French comedies on my list I've yet to see..

For example: 2 each for best supporting actor, actress, and most promising actress...

I'm seeing it in a couple of weeks, and I am looking forward to it. I think the Cesars are between Amour and Holy Motors though this year. But this is the film that has picked up the most nominations. How facinating. I've heard lots of people call it a Peggy Sue remake.Lisa Thatchernoreply@blogger.com
