i agree with johnlewis and who say that there be a lot go on between the line in this film . while i do think the pacing of this film could be improve and i do think that the complexity of the relationship between the character be fascinate . example represent pierre be go to marry his cousin and even though his love for her seem very cousin y . pierre and his stepmother have a rather . curious relationship . pierre and lucie and and thibault seem to have a triangular relationship and and the actual point to the triangle be not quite certain . lucie brother be a bit of a eunuch and or be he . and isabelle and who be she really . overall and i think it be worth my time . an interesting film and and one that make me want to read melville .
