A pleasant revisit, though this time around it lacked that little spark that made it into a personal favorite. I guess it was the characters themselves, who felt a bit too stereotypical American and French. The culture clash between Europe and the US feels a bit easy and flimsy, but other than that the romance is very sweet indeed.
Delpy and Hawke are both very good, the setting is romantic and the conversations between the two are amusing, though a little forced sometimes. There's not that much happening, still, the pacing is fine and the runtime is just perfect. As is the ending. It's a fine film, just not quite as special as I remembered it to be.
