    A cute 40ish French couple recount the stages of their 'pornographic' affair to an interviewer. I say cute because most of the acting they both do is thoughtful, sincere reflection and they are quite sweet doing it.

    BIG SPOILER:
    We are never told nor shown what kind of kinky sex...( read more) constitutes the affair. Instead, the focus is on how they come to really like each other and then sadly decide to stop seeing one another.

    Even though I liked the characters I think the film is a cheap tease and tries to pull on the heartstrings too much. I don't know what the goal is for the film and the ride by itself isn't good enough to compensate. It is neither erotic nor sexy, and for a 'talkie' film it has a little too much yardage between the goal posts.

    We learn every day new things. It is worth to re-start. Why not ? Nathalie Baye is fantastic. Relationships specially in Paris is too complicated. For instance Hollywood script binds this subject as a happy ending with marriage. In France , toooo complicated. Don't ask me reason ...( read more)why.

    Como el título anticipa y delimita, la historia trata sobre una relación basada en eventuales encuentros sexuales, pero que inevitablemente termina en un profundo lazo de amor.

    Despite the title, this is one of the most romantic movies I have ever seen.
  • March 18, 2009
    This particular film possesses enough enchantment to join "Shortbus" in the pole of those rare films that dare approach sex with a frank, healthy attitude.

    Erotically strange.... The whole idea and the unknown outcomes create fantasies in us all...
