Anecdotes:

The Kookai store where Cassia works is at 155, Rue de Rennes in the 6th arrondissement of Paris.

Goofs:

Continuity: In the stylized sequence in which Xavier imagines he is following Célia in the "Street with Perfect Proportions," the shadows don't match: The shots on Celia show almost no shadows, but in shots on Xavier, the street is almost completely in shadows.

Guillemet:

Wendy: This is the best view of London. You see the London Eye there?
Xavier: Oh... Where is Oxford Street.
Wendy: Are you alright?
Xavier: I don't know... I don't feel great. Are you going to this flamenco concert?
Wendy: I don't know. Why not?
Xavier: Oh.
Wendy: What's wrong?... Look I can see something's wrong. What's wrong?
Xavier: [grabs Wendy and kisses her] That's what's wrong.

Loved Both of the Movies

In the same way that L'Auberge Espagnole dealt with the difficulties of career, school, and growing up in general, Russian Dolls deals with love and growing older. I think the great thing about both of these movies is that so many people can look at these characters- especially Xavier- and say, "Yes! I'm not the only one going through this stuff then!" During both movies there were certain phrases and quotes that made me stop and say, "Wow! That is dead on!" Like in L'Auberge when Xavier talks about how life seems less complicated for everybody else, more organized. Or the final line in Russian Dolls about the search for that special someone. Great movies, entertaining, but most of all they speak to those of us who are still trying to figure it all out!
