2 Days in Paris

Have I ever watched a movie with a Paris so de-romanticized? No poetry of the place of any kind, only aggressive cab-drivers, insistent ex-lovers (are they totally ex?), people hostile to foreigners (even when they are your in-laws). Well, the movie has a point. When a couple's life sucks, even Paris sucks. Because the movie is not about Paris, it's about a couple thrown in troubled waters. Will the relation survive? Let's hope for the best.

And there is another thing: Paris opens its heart only to those who are open to receive it. When you come there, leave your baggage of problems and arrogance, and become a poet, as the city is.
