I think it is a very subtle film - and I disagree about the Seydoux character being underdeveloped. Its difficult to discuss because of the twist, but I think as a person who is in enormous denial and trying to avoid a serious responsibility that will dramatically change her life, she is remarkably good. Seydoux (almost) makes me feel more sorry for her character in this film than I do for Simon, and I think that is phenomenal given who her character is. I was shocked by the honesty of this film; particularly about women.<br /><br />But thanks for a great review as usual. Godard and Quettier are amazing and so is the John Parish PJ Harvey music (although I noticed only JP is getting credits)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00597866901901238462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-556159764413551252.post-74586908142159582122013-01-23T06:24:57.035-08:002013-01-23T06:24:57.035-08:00This one screened in Perth this evening and I'...This one screened in Perth this evening and I'm glad we went. As usual I find myself agreeing with everything you've said about this film. Beautifully shot, interesting drama with strong performances from the two leads but disappointing in its flaws.blahblahblahtobyhttp://blahblahblahgay.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-556159764413551252.post-8515404557894324162012-11-15T03:13:14.868-08:002012-11-15T03:13:14.868-08:00Finding foreign cinema in Perth is getting harder ...Finding foreign cinema in Perth is getting harder and harder.

This region develops very fast. Carpathians become more and more popular among skiers of Ukraine and the world. Such resorts as Slavske or Dragobrat are symbols of perfect skiing and comfortable hotels. Just read about Ukrainian places for skiing http://ukraine-vacation-guide.com/publ/ukraine_ski/15 and remember that conditions become more comfortable every year!samnoreply@blogger.com
