Three Friends

An elegant and sophisticated comedy that delves into the intricate dynamics between the friendship of three women and their respective love lives. The illusions of romantic love act as a centrifugal force, pulling them apart, yet the inevitable disappointments, mistakes, and reflections ultimately bring them back together. Life proves to be a precarious balance (as beautifully illustrated in a memorable scene from an old Buster Keaton film), best approached with compassion-for one's own mistakes as well as those of others. With its detached irony, sharp dialogue, singular setting (Lyon), and refined soundtrack, this film will undoubtedly appeal to fans of Woody Allen.
