I saw this film last night on a flight from Paris to Santiago. And even though the screen was tiny, the beauty of the film simply shone from the screen.
Wonderful and witty dialogs, beautiful undercurrents in what's happening and a scene (spoiler alert) with the lead actor and an outdoor horse- watering trough converted into a jacuzzi that's hilarious and has to be seen to be truly appreciated.
As the film progresses, so does its complexity and we see that characters that seem marginal to the film tend to become vital to the plot.
One of the most beautiful sequences is a cycling scene, that not only alludes to the title, but also to that wonderful film: "Jules et Jim" by Francois Truffaut. And the allusion is not only in relation to the specific scene, but also to the plot of Jules et Jim.
I'm only giving it a nine because it's very difficult to properly judge a film on a teeny screen 11.000 meters above the Atlantic...
