Julie Delpy writes, directs and stars in this tenderly comical portrayal of two days in the relationship of a 30-something New York-based couple. French photographer Marion (Delpy) and American interior designer Jack (Adam Goldberg) decide to re-infuse their relationship with romance by taking a holiday in Europe. Their trip to Venice didn't really work out: they both came down with gastroenteritis. They have higher hopes for Paris. But Marion's overbearing non-English speaking parents and flirtatious ex-boyfriends, combined with Jack's obsession with photographing every famous Parisian tombstone and his conviction that French condoms are too small, only add fuel to the fire. Will they be able to salvage their relationship?
Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play. Julie Delpy, as well as a being a beautiful and talented actress, is a woman of many talents. Want the proof? Then Two Days In Paris, a warm and distinctly European-feel comedy that she also scripted and directed, is a terrific piece of evidence. It’s one of 2007’s most engaging surprises, too. Delpy previously co-scripted the wonderful Before Sunset, and Two Days In Paris has a similar feel. The film follows Delpy’s Marion and Adam Goldberg’s Jack as they spend time in the French capital, dealing with the assortment of issues and scenarios it throws up. Given that Marion is French and Jack is American, there are cultural issues that are explored. Yet it’s a character piece at heart, and that’s where the film’s strength lies. Because the treat with Two Days In Paris is the quality of writing. With dialogue crucial to the film’s success, Delpy’s script generates engaging conversations and characters well worth spending time with. The film itself doesn’t quite scale the heights of the aforementioned Before Sunset, but it’s the film that comes the closest since to doing so. So if you fancy something a little off the beaten track, where character is crucial, the music is grand and the film never takes a cheap shot, then treat yourself to Two Days In Paris. And keep your eye on Julie Delpy; whether in front of or behind the camera, this is a woman with plenty to offer. --Jon Foster Actors: Julie Delpy, Adam Goldberg, Daniel Brühl, Marie Pillet, Albert Delpy Directors: Julie Delpy Format: PAL Language: English Subtitles: English Dubbed: None Subtitles For The Hearing Impaired: English Audio Description: None Region: Region 2 (This DVD may not be viewable outside Europe.
