Marie (Moore) is an American widow trying to raise two children under difficult circumstances in a small town in France. Marty (also played by Moore) is a successful businesswoman in New York City who wants to leave her busy life and lead a quieter existence in Europe. But Marty is just a product of Marie's imagination -- or at least that's what Marie thinks. Marty, on the other hand, is convinced that Marie is just someone she dreamed up. Who is right? Or are both of them wrong? And where does it leave the men in their lives (Stellan Skarsgard and William Fichtner)? Passion of Mind was the first English-language film from French director Alain Berliner, best known for the arthouse success Ma Vie en Rose. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Emanuel Levy, Variety
Even by standards of Ron Bass, who has written soupy chick flicks, this fake emotional drama is a minor work; too bad French helmer Berliner made his English-speaking debut with this trifle
-
Nell Minow, Common Sense Media
A juicy romance story for older teens.
-
Frank Swietek, One Guy's Opinion
Exhibits little passion and even less mind.
-
Michael Dequina, TheMovieReport.com
Never comes up with a compelling reason to care.
-
Fred Topel, About.com
Somewhat interesting parallel lives story, but needed more ambiguity.
