Editorial Reviews

A single thirtysomething whose friends all seem to be romantically involved, happily married, or with child meets an eccentric Frenchman who shows her just what an amazing place the world can truly be in director Zoe Cassavetes' entry into the 2007 Sundance Film Festival. As if it wasn't depressing enough to be 35 and still single, Nora (Parker Posey) is constantly reminded by her loving but tactless mother (Gena Rowlands) just how unlucky she has been in love. Though Nora longs to enter into a blissful union like the one of her best friend, Audrey (Drea de Matteo), she finds that the dating pool just isn't what it used to be. Things soon begin to look up, however, when Nora makes the acquaintance of handsome Frenchman Julian (Melvil Poupaud). While the two share an instant chemistry that is undeniable, Nora is saddened to learn that Julian will soon be departing for his native soil. When Julian does depart, Nora laments the fact that she wasn't able to express her feelings more effectively. If only Nora could organize her scattered thoughts long enough to remember her love object's last name, she might not have to go searching out every "Julian" in Paris to locate the man of her dreams.

September 17, 2007: This is a well-written and well-acted film. Parker Posey plays the character of Nora superbly - annoying yet endearing, and Melvil Poupaud is wonderful as Frenchman Julian. And hot, it can't be denied, but that's rather beside the point. Anyway, give it a try, I'm sure you'll like it.

August 31, 2007: You won't be sorry if you watch this movie. The writing, directing and acting are superb. This may be the best performance ever from Parker Posey. Definitely worth the time.
