Great Movie
23 December 2003
I saw this film when it first came out and it has stuck in my head since. I have never seen it on tv or in a video store, although I am sure it must have been on and I just missed it. The scenery is great. Marie France Pisier is absolutely gorgeous. John Beck plays a total bast*rd, very convincingly. I have never been a great fan of Susan Sarandon. Her role could have been played better by someone else. If this were remade today, maybe Gwyneth Paltrow? The abortion in the bathtub scene was so over the top at that time. The wardrobe is elegant and totally fabulous. However in one scene, Marie-France Pisier is decending a fabulous staircase, decked out in a very glamourous brown and earthtone pants outfit. Why is she wearing the same black, torn up platform shoes she wore in her earlier scenes when she was a struggling model?

Curl up on the sofa and break out the Kleenex.
