Not that bad

I like that movie: for the story, not so original but always working, for the hair of Angelina Jolie (she should stay that way), for the photography, and the way it is framed. However, in line with some comments, it's the type ofmovie where American producers and directors are not at ease, or notskilled to make (sorry for them). It would have been at the top, made by a Claude Lellouch, Bertrand Tavernier, Patrice Leconte, or even Begnino Begnini (as a real comedy) Angelina is credible as an egocentric ambitious but hollow young lady. Her boyfriend, Cal, is up to the task. Pete could have been more convincing, but I give a high grade to the "prophet". I retain the quotation "live every day as if it is your last day, because one day it will be" - Who said that? It remains a pleasant, but at times, dull movie.
