Since there were no written reviews, and this film has a rather low rating, thought I'd contribute something. It's a great looking film with a beautiful setting and fine cinematography. The acting is quite good as well, with Charlotte Gainsbourg giving her typical fine work. Be forewarned though, it's very talking with virtually no action. Just watching Charlotte perform, observing the ___location, and figuring out the characters was rewarding enough for me. The incidental music was haunting and atmospheric. The slowness didn't bother me but overall it was just too dry to give it more than six stars. The script needed just a bit more of something, but since I'm not a writer I don't know what. Eric Rohmer, for example, was never this dry and lifeless.
