4/10
Languid but interesting.
13 September 2004
One thing I came away with from this film was "the closeness of lifelong friendship".

A simple drama which looks at the protagonists' family ties and friendships, and certain events which shape a life.

The drama is more a "slice out of life" type affair, than a typical Hollywood/soap-opera melodrama.

The performances are definitely convincing and nuanced, but did not impress enough for Oscar (or Canadian equivalent) nominations.

It is largely set in one Canada's french-speaking cities (or at least that's how it seemed), Montreal. Perhaps it was the time of year it was filmed, but it certainly paints a very interesting place to visit.

Though a languidly-paced film, it is definitely not boring.
