Both Yvan Attal and Charlotte Gainsborough are thoroughly appealing, as their unblinking honesty and openness shines through even the film’s silliest bits.

Attal's hang-ups surrounding infidelity are so old-fashioned and, dare I say, outdated, it's a wonder that he couldn't have brought something fresher to the proceedings simply by accident.

Never less than clever and often digs down into some uncomfortable realities about the strange lives of that odd species known as 'movie people.'

Attal pushes too hard to make this a comedy or serious drama. He seems to want both, but succeeds in making neither.

Top Critic Starts off witty and sophisticated and you want to love it -- but filmmaker Yvan Attal quickly writes himself into a corner.

Top Critic A funny valentine to show business and marriage, an inside joke that plays humorously for anybody to grasp.
