One Fine Morning
“It explores love, both romantic and familial, with no trace of drama or sappiness, and without ever feeling slight. It’s a balm of a film and another glorious showcase for the director’s light touch when dealing with complicated emotions.”~Anna Bogutskaya, Time Out
Aroview: Lea Seydoux is French movie star royalty but she keeps it real in this sublime film from Mia Hansen-Løve (Bergman Island), one of Europe’s most prolific and respected female auteurs.
She plays a thirty-something solo mother and translator who finds herself tethered to two men – a hunky married one who she’s fallen hopelessly in love with and her beloved father who was once a brilliant academic but who now has dementia. It’s a love story in which life’s little messes gets in the way of romantic ideals told with the signature under-statement of the writer-director.

4 stars (Very Good) Everyday charm, contrasting the young & the old. Even if the Director's knowledge of Antarctic mammals is sadly lacking. Otherwise, an intimate & profound portrayal of an intelligent & kind young woman. A nice straightforward film on life's challenges. ~Sandy
