Editorial Review:
The cinematic team of Merchant Ivory (Howard's End, The Remains of the Day) leaves corsets behind for the contemporary world of Americans in Paris. The day Isabel Walker (Kate Hudson, How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days) comes to visit her pregnant sister Roxy (Naomi Watts, Mullholland Drive) is the day Roxy's French husband leaves her. The divorce proceedings end up centering around a painting, long owned by the Walkers, that the husband's family would like to claim--but their maneuverings are complicated when Isabel begins an affair with a diplomat (Thierry Lhermitte, The Closet) who just happens to be Roxy's uncle-in-law. At its best moments, Le Divorce has the feel of one of Woody Allen's serio-comic films like Hannah and Her Sisters, and there's a genuinely suspenseful climactic scene on the Eiffel Tower. Also featuring Leslie Caron, Glenn Close, Matthew Modine, Stephen Fry, Sam Waterston, and Stockard Channing. --Bret Fetzer

Le Divorce [Region 2] Reviews:
divorce French style
2009-10-18 - They are just ,oh, so, calm about sexual affairs, where and
American husband and an American wife are near driven around the bend?
The movie kind of makes fun of the French who never talk about money,
but have it so on their minds? The Americans never talk about sex,
but in this movie the old diplomat does the young American girl
in high quality French style?
I thought the movie was really terrible in several ways...
Sort of like the Russian cart driver who beats his dead horse,
taking the French too task for being decadent is very strange.
They actually got revolution all wrong at the end of the 18th
century and have really never recovered their leadership in culture
since the early 20th? After all California seems to be leading
in both culture and wine these days.


Culture Clash
2009-03-11 - Le Divorce is a film set in Paris, France. If you're an individual who enjoys watching films set in different locations rather than the average American backdrop this picture is appealing to the eye. It deals with the cultural difference between the Western world and French. How an American has adapted to life as a Parisian and ultimately being forced to raise the child alone until her sister's presence. The film has foriegn movie elements to it which means, it is more of an acquired taste. Ultimately they learn to live and adapt to the French way of life. Leaving the viewer to feel satidfied yet perplexed.

Boring
2008-11-27 - I wasn't really happy w/ this movie...Some parts of the movie were just real boring...

Made Glad I'm Not French..
2008-07-14 - What a waste of time...I am really upset with myself for spending so much time with so many shallow, self absorbed people...Who have no dreams or ambitions beyond their own materialistic desires...
Naomi Watt's character is only one close to having any contact with what really matters in life....Another example of Hollywood's fascination with materialism....

It Sucks.............BOOOORING!!!!!
2008-06-14 - Thank God I BORROWED this movie and not bought it...It would have been a TOTAL waste of money. I love Kate Hudson...but all I have to say is put this movie on when it's time for bed....it will put you RIGHT to sleep!!!
