Barely made it before midnight but managed to get three movies this weekend! Whew. It has been a while since I managed to stick to my schedule. Hopefully, that means things are calming down now and getting back to normal -- for a given value of normal.
Elise (Veerle Baetens) and Didier (Johan Heldenbergh) are in love. They met by chance, immediately hit it off, and lived six wonderful and one terrible year together.
The movie jumps all over their relationship, interspersing present and past to show the highs and lows. It reminded me of Blue Valentine, Once, and Country Strong, but I don't recommend doubling it up with any of those unless you are just in a cathartic kind of mood.
Content Warning: suicide, death of a child. Spoilery, but that's kind of the point of a content warning. It's currently streaming for free on Vudu with ads.
