a must - see movie!
25 December 2006
I loved this movie! It seems complex, the hard-working automotive factory owner, who finally decides to sell, and appease his wife who has always wanted to travel, who is bored with the live of staying in town, in the house all the time. She feels life is passing her by, and she is stagnating. He wants to make his wife happy, but has to deal with her having an affair, and can he trust her now? At what point does he say that divorce is the answer? I like that fact that this movie ends on fairly positive note, with out both people hating each other - which is how I believe relationships should be able to end, with neither party hating the other.

Also, the woman who wants to be the other woman in the mans life gives a spectacular performance - you quickly warm to her as a wonderful person.
