About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a quiet, late-night Paris romance-drama about lonely people connecting, with a drifting pace and occasional wit; Not for you if you need high emotion or fast plotting, and A Gentle Woman may be a better fit.

Pros: haunting Paris night mood; quiet romantic tension; touches of humor | Cons: slow, meandering pace; emotionally distant characters; uneven acting
