After the gala party I decided to shoot down to the Uptown theater. I told myself that if I got a great parking spot I'd stick around, otherwise I'd cut the night short. Luckily I did find a spot and was able to catch the film. I was a bit nervous as I hadn't much enjoyed the directors last movie, Comedy of Power. The new film follows the struggles of a young woman caught between two lovers, an older rich writer and a younger rich playboy. Frankly, neither makes a good choice. Sort of a soap opera of French people behaving badly. Very badly at times. With the exception of the girl of the title none of the main characters is particularly likeable. But for some reason I was pretty into it. It's not one of my top choices but it worked for me (around 3/5 type of a rating). Your mileage may vary.
