A Very Long Engagement



DUMP

This film was so horrible. I couldn't even finish watching half of it. First, I didn't know it was a French film. I have no problems with foreign films, but I have big problems when the foreign film has no point. It was about a woman who was waiting for her love to return from the war. Who cares? Why make a movie about this? Why make a movie of a woman who waits and searches for a man who deserted his army in the war? He was not a significant figure. She was not a significant figure. Thousands of men died in the war. What makes this one special that merits a story?
