Featured review
A delightful French romance
This film achieves something that a heck of a lot of films, particularly romantic comedies, get wrong.
It captures that feeling of two people messily entering into a relationship. The initial joys and awkwardness. The moments of fright when it all seems overwhelming. The calm reflective times and the stormy moments of doubt.
After a shaky start, the film blossoms into a refreshingly cliché free study of a beautiful woman impulsively starting a relationship with a shy, ungainly, but good natured man. It's his goodness that comes through. He wins out over the slick womanisers through sheer innocent charm and a desire to do good.
A heart warming film about the need to love fearlessly and without following the crowd and of taking happiness where it's found.
