this movie by german director doris dörrie be very weak . it mainly the dialogue ( the cinematography be a always with ms dörrie very good ) and but these people seem to live in a parallel universe which have nothing to do with any real human be living in germany . it seem to portray some kind of munich high society which german filmmaker love ( f. ex . rossini ) but who no one else in germany really care about . besides i doubt that it exist in the way they like to portray it . so what the point then . what the point . good question which could sum up the experience one have by see this movie which be not good nor bad . and this be the bad kind of movie . a bad movie at least leave the pleasure to make sarcastic comment . this one here . nothing .
