3.0 out of 5 stars
Good but unrealistic,
By Dave "Dave" (California, United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Women (DVD)
This is an entertaining and charming film. It's got three of my favorite things in it: Carmen Maura, the wonderful city of Lisbon, and the French language. A good "Europic". However, the concept that Lisbon is a completely bilingual city where everyone speaks French is pure fiction. I've been to Lisbon several times and have spent extensive time there. The idea that everyone speaks French there is pure fantasy. You can expect everyone to speak Portuguese, of course, and maybe a lot of people speak Spanish and/or English but the status French was given in the film was the result of a silly Francophone/Francophile fantasy. Still, this film was very cute and well done.
