Movies We Watch

Fun, funny, sad, great natural dialogue. The attitude the Julie Delpy has towards her country men is enlightening. In this film, all french men are cads that do nothing more than think about sex. Her American boyfriend is a sarcastic, bitter, whiner of a man. Yet he is far more lovable than any of the french men in the film. I can’t think of another actor that could have delivered some of the lines as well as Adam Goldberg. Amazing comedic timing.

I will never take a cab if I ever get to Paris. This movie paints them all as people you would never really want to sit in a car with.

“You are so mean, and yet so right.” (Marion on the lie Jack tells to the Davinci Coders)

Great cat. Great film. It was on the list to watch eventually, but thank you Shelia for the recommend. I am glad we watched it.
