"Marie-Jo et Ses Deux Amours" is the story of exactly what the title says. A middle aged woman Marie-Jo, seemingly happily married to her kind-hearted husband Daniel with a smart teenage daughter Julie, is having a concurrent serious affair with another man Marco. OK, this melodrama is not my cup of tea to begin with, but I stayed on to find out what happens to this love triangle. For me, the whole movie is maddening because the director never really tells us why Marie Jo would sacrifice her family for this Marco guy. How Marie Jo and Marco met was merely glossed over. Whenever they meet they are probably naked in bed. The story telling is very slow, taking all of two hours. And this repetitive meandering leads to a very sudden and unsatisfying conclusion.
