And this weekend it was "2 Days in Paris". Good movie. Nice little meditation on the difficulties involved in keeping a relationship going. Most people, it seems, are at least a little bit insecure, especially in this area, and so the danger of misinterpreting someone else's behaviours or statements is always present. This film adds in the extra complication of language. She speaks two, he speaks one. They're visiting her parents, her town, and, yep, her language. He's left to try to decipher gestures, facial expressions, and the odd bits of her language that he does understand. Toss in some healthy neuroses on both sides and..........yep, trouble ensues.
