i watch romantic comedy with some hesitation and for romantic comedy feature age old clichés which make a movie uninteresting . typically in a romantic comedy and there be a girl and there be a guy and both fall in love and then have trouble and and then win over the trouble to marry or whatever . but and this movie be a different story and it be really very different from the romantic comedy i have see of lately . there be a widowed guy ( dan ) and there be a girl ( marie ) . dan meet marie in a bookshop and talk for sometime and after sometime marie have to leave . dan develop something for her and and when this something start to turn meaningful and we get a twist . marie be the girlfriend of his brother . unheeded of the circumstance and dan flirt with marie and realize that he love her and and even marie love him and but their love would not just be possible . how it be make possible form the rest of the story . steve carell performs well and juliette binoche be good a marie . and every other stuff be do well . it be a good movie and watch it .
