"An Affair of Love"

In this wonderful French film from 2001, Nathalie Baye has placed an ad in a sex magaazine and Sergi Lopez answers it over the Internet. They set up a meeting in a cafe and then retire to a nearby hotel to axct out their mutual fantasy. One of the charms of the film is that we never find out what that fantasy is. The story is told in a series of interview flashbacks to an off screen interviewer and it becomes clear very quickly that her memories differ from his and vice versa. We know from the outset that the affair did not last, but we are intrigued to follow their weekly trysts and the ups and downs of their gradually growing love for each other. Beautifully shot in widescreen (the DVD is ananorphic) and in Dolby Digital 5.1 sound with very readable English subtitles.

Actress Baye, long a fixture in French films, played Leo Decaprio's mother in Speilberg's "Catch Me if You Can"
