A moderately enjoyable film. If you are a lover of French cinema, this will be more enjoyable. Two loners, drift together, aided by her wonderful spirit, her joy and her sensuality.
He, a writer/painter/plumber/jack-of-all-trades, seems to be existing day-to-day, before she enters his life; then, slowly, the partnership, the commitment evolves into something more.
As the film proceeds, they move to Paris, staying with a friend and she painstakingly types his lone handwritten manuscript and sends it off to publishers in the hope that it will get published. This becomes a driving force in her life.
Throughout the film, they constantly move forward, searching, striving for something better. He is somewhat content throughout, willing to follow her lead. She, however becomes more and more obsessed, with thoughts of failure, the world against her, the futility of her life.
A sad ending to their travails; but, he ends up the better for it.
Well acted throughout, although a few of the supporting characters tend to overact at times.
A good film for a rainy night at home.
