Recensione in evidenza
This is a case of "see the movie because of Michelle Pfeiffer" because the story is whimsical and quirky and ultimately doesn't make much sense. However she gives an award worthy performance. My wife and I watched it at home on DVD from our public library.
Pfeiffer is really good as the 60s New York socialite who, as she says, "Planned to die right before the money ran out." Now the money has virtually run out and she is still very much alive and healthy.
So she sells everything and her lawyer friend delivers to her several stacks of cash. A good friend has a vacant apartment in Paris and offers it to her. (I found myself thinking "Why would someone have a vacant apartment in a nice area of Paris?") She and her young adult son and the cat take a ship there to hopefully settle into a new life.
As the movie moves along more and more quirky characters enter the picture. Including a young woman who can talk to the deceased. Then the family cat begins to talk to them, in her deceased husband's voice. She gives away stacks of money to strangers. (I found myself thinking her son might like to have the money.) It is never hinted at why the son still follows his mother around, even though he is engaged to a nice young lady. I suppose maybe sons of NY socialites maybe do that?
So was it a worthwhile watch? Just barely. We hoped for so much more in the way of interesting story, or interesting resolution but it never gels. The quirkiness quickly becaome more of a distraction than entertainment.
