Denis, with the acting skills of Binoche, has found depth that was probably not in the novel.
As with all relationships, Jean (Lindon) & Sara (Binoche), it is not quite as it seems, initially.
Of course, there is some serious history that is aluded to early on, and then it explodes when an ex-friend, work colleague and lover comes on the scene.
The responses by each of the three is very 'telling', leading to intense interactions.
Highly recommend as an insight into the complexities of intimate relationships especially in middle-age when the wounds of the past have not fully healed.
