spoiler i be a fan of 60 70 french cinema but not necessarily of the more modern and so to be honest i watch this because of bellucci . she be very young here and extremely beautiful and on top of this supposedly this movie be where they meet with cassel and so it give it some extra importance . the movie begin with a very nice style reminiscent of depalma . then suddenly we be throw to flashback and and the back and forth go on which get tire . i do not mind one flash back and but do it and get it over with man . anyway and the movie be still interest to me until a point when the first and definite hole in the plot and that allow for the rest of the story and never let me enjoy the rest . i can allow for little hole here and there and but not to base an entire plot on hot air . this be the story of a man who be literally search for an old flame . this be the main plot . i will go along and when the story at some point will convince me that there be really mysterious thing go on and but in this story there nothing really mysterious . bellucci cassel be a couple and then bellucci urgently have to leave for some job in italy ( not the farthest place on earth from paris ) and she leave him a message and which for reason later explain he doesn not get . ok and so what . don not these people have phone . supposedly she be away for 2months ( not a century exactly ) and wouldn not she call her boyfriend in paris to see how he do . of course not . instead and even after she get back she forget all about him . and thats fine and but later in the movie she tell her friend that it be her great love and be ready to commit for the first time in her life . yet she fail to give him a call for 2months and then never try to get back with him . and what about cassel character . he be supposedly unable to locate her in italy and really hard to find someone in italy and it probably like siberia and especially an actress who be probably list even in the art paper . and after 2months when she would be back and really hard to find her and ask for an explanation . one think she want to avoid him and but no and we find out they simply couldn not meet . so hard to meet in paris . ok and i do not need to go far and because this be the incident where the entire movie be base . what be even bad and bellucci be not really the star of this movie but this other girl bohringer be .
