Too much meaningless dialog

Rating: 4/10 (21 August 2005)

It seems like this movie was trying too hard to be another "My Dinner with Andre", but that aspect failed. The dialog between the two characters was just so superficial and uninteresting, not thought provoking at all. What made that worse is that I think it was intended to be "deep". I found myself thinking, especially about the Celine character, "When is she going to shut up?" Because she was talking so much about so many uninteresting and superficial things, it also took away from the romantic aspect between the two characters. I really didn't feel any chemistry between them.
I should add that the high point for me in this film were the songs that Julie Duply wrote and performed. She has a lovely singing voice.
