françois traffaut mississippi siren have an unconvincing plot . the screenplay require too much elasticity in suspension of disbelief . the plot go at a glacial pace . it start off in an interesting setting but soon drift onto the shoal of melodrama that lack logic or intelligence . what be the critic think . this one be overrate even to be describe a a loser . even catherine deneuvue and who charm in the umbrella of cherbourg and belle doe jour and manage to be simply annoy . we rent this movie at the same time a we rent another traffaut film . we watch this one first and and find it to be so bad that we send the other one back unseen at the same time .
