    Amazon.com
    The cinematic team of Merchant Ivory (Howard's End, The Remains of the Day) leaves corsets behind for the contemporary world of Americans in Paris. The day Isabel Walker (Kate Hudson, How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days) comes to visit her pregnant sister Roxy (Naomi Watts, Mullholland Drive) is the day Roxy's French husband leaves her. The divorce proceedings end up centering around a painting, long owned by the Walkers, that the husband's family would like to claim--but their maneuverings are complicated when Isabel begins an affair with a diplomat (Thierry Lhermitte, The Closet) who just happens to be Roxy's uncle-in-law. At its best moments, Le Divorce has the feel of one of Woody Allen's serio-comic films like Hannah and Her Sisters, and there's a genuinely suspenseful climactic scene on the Eiffel Tower. Also featuring Leslie Caron, Glenn Close, Matthew Modine, Stephen Fry, Sam Waterston, and Stockard Channing. --Bret Fetzer

    3 out of 5 stars Culture Clash   March 11, 2009
    Claudia Benitez (Melbourne, VIC AUS)
    Le Divorce is a film set in Paris, France. If you're an individual who enjoys watching films set in different locations rather than the average American backdrop this picture is appealing to the eye. It deals with the cultural difference between the Western world and French. How an American has adapted to life as a Parisian and ultimately being forced to raise the child alone until her sister's presence. The film has foriegn movie elements to it which means, it is more of an acquired taste. Ultimately they learn to live and adapt to the French way of life. Leaving the viewer to feel satidfied yet perplexed.


    1 out of 5 stars Boring   November 27, 2008
    Gloria L. Urquhart (Park Ridge IL)
    I wasn't really happy w/ this movie...Some parts of the movie were just real boring...


    1 out of 5 stars Made Glad I'm Not French..   July 14, 2008
    John W. Schlatter (Grand Junction, Colorado)
    What a waste of time...I am really upset with myself for spending so much time with so many shallow, self absorbed people...Who have no dreams or ambitions beyond their own materialistic desires...
    Naomi Watt's character is only one close to having any contact with what really matters in life....Another example of Hollywood's fascination with materialism....

    2 out of 5 stars It has no bounce   February 19, 2008
    Crabby Old Lady (North Carolina)
    The point of this film is revealed at Sunday lunch (at least three generations are present) in the French countryside.

    Roxy, her sister Isobel (the Americans) are having lunch at the country home of Roxy's mother in law, Madame dePersand who is very rich. Roxy's husband is not present as he has left Roxy and no one knows where he is. Roxy and her errant husband Charles-Henri seem to be rich too but they live in a simple flat in Paris.

    Antoine (Roxy's brother in law) says that everyone in France is following the exploits of an American senator whose sexual appeal is due to his not using gel when he blow dries his hair. All of his conquests, referred to in his diary as S1, S2, S3... attribute his sex appeal to his lovely hair. It has more bounce, explains Antoine.

    And in fact, hair is what this movie is about. Everyone except Roxy's divorce lawyer has lots of it.

    Long blonde hair: Roxy, Isobel
    Medium long blonde hair: various dePersand women
    Short blonde hair: husband of woman Isobel's husband leaves her for

    Short dark hair: both of Isobel's lovers, Roxy's husband, Roxy's mother in law, children

    Medium dark hair: Magda, woman Charles-Henri leaves Roxy for. Talks like a demented bird and moves her hands like she has a neurological problem.

    Long graying hair: Olivia Pace, writer

    Long white hair: landlady where Roxy lives

    No hair: Roxy's divorce lawyer, who seems to be French but speaks perfect accentless English


    Nice touch: Isobel changes her hair cut about half way through the film.
    Unfortunately this makes her resemble a frog wearing lipstick.
    (some sort of visual joke? she is trying to look French but ends up looking like a frog)

    Anyway, if you want to watch, watch.
