Aroview: Another sumptuous, stylistic meditation for dir. Julio Medem that interlocks his penchant for intricate, fractured narrative with a thrust of daring erotic-fantasy.

4 stars (Very Good) Lucia, a waitress, falls in love with Lorenzo, a young novelist with a secret in his past. The story is intertwined with dramatised scenes from Lorenzo’s novel, with it left to the viewer to decide what's fact or fiction. Daring but tasteful. ~GenXGirl
1 star (Turkey) Beautiful & amusing. Well-produced in France, it lacks sophistication & the fun that it should have because it's overwhelmed by a dense & creaky plot. Had a look at Mendem's other movies and they are the same or worse. Love without a plot is dull. ~Sandy
