modest in all respects
7 October 2007
modest is the word for this amusing semi-profound outing. Ms. Delpy certainly has been paying attention during her stints with Linklater and Jarmusch. 2 Days in Paris aspires to some of the transendentalism of these directors and doesn't embarrass herself in trying.

More practice, more editing, more angle will serve her well in the future.

The use of multiple taxi drivers was nicely done. The return of the tourists was unnecessary. The insightful fairy was OK.

While not quite in the league of Broken Flowers or Waking Life, this film is a modest approximation of the Befores. Hopefully, Delpy will be able to continue maturing into her own style.
