Despite me being a fan of Akermen, I approached the film with apprehension after hearing mostly negative things about it. Surprise surprise that I am very enchanted by this very under-rated film. Probably because most people see it as a strait-laced romantic comedy.Its subtle quirkiness (yes those 2 words can appear together) is what I think make the film stands out. Besides, any films in which I don't find William Hurt nor Juliette Binoche irritating is a miracle in itself.
