Answers: I thought it was relaxing and Parker Posey is great as always.

Another star in the recent crown of twenty-something coming-of-age films. In the wake of Garden State and the entire Sophia Coppola collection, a most delicate and beautiful film, somehow sunlit and lovely while revealing the angst and anxiety of living at the crux of life without direction or optimism.

Parker Posey is remarkably both diaphanous and tortured as Nora, lending a realism to loneliness seldom found in "neurotic single woman" roles, which is no doubt a credit both to Posey's acting triumph and also Zoe Cassavente's writer/directorial sensitivity. Melvil Poupaud is also mesmerizing, a modern answer to what would have seemed "dreamy" mid-century with his poetic eyes and haunting sensuality. Favorite side characters make gentle entrances during the Paris scenes, in which Drea de Matteo truly shines.
But, I have to say I give it a 6.5 from 10.
