Intersection description
The temptation here is to make a joke about Intersection and dead ends--but this disappointing film has too much talent involved to kid about how wrong it went. Based on the French film Les Choses de la Vie, the film was adapted by the usually reliable Marshall Brickman (Annie Hall) and David Rayfiel (The Firm). Richard Gere plays a man caught between two women: his chilly, remote wife (Sharon Stone) and his vibrant young mistress (Lolita Davidovich). How the marriage declined, how the affair began, and how the two women's paths eventually cross--everything is seen in flashback after Gere's car spins out of control in a horrible accident. Director Mark Rydell has some of the squarest dialogue in recent movie history to work with, as he dissects how the marriage fell apart because of the wife's coolness and Gere's subsequent attraction to Davidovich's cocky young journalist. --Marshall Fine |

♥♥♥♥♥ |
Another fine remake!
|
From time to time Hollywood turns its gaze around excellent but less known French films of old ages and pretends to inspire itself with renovated wishes but at the end nothing happens.
The French film in question is le chooses de la vie directed by Claude Sautet, whose main virtue turns around the existential crumbling of a faker ; a man with two faces who establishes a hidden affair and while he is dying as product of a fatal accident, the script makes a gradual and incisive narrative ellipsis.
This remake lacks the poetic ability to introduce us in that dreamy atmosphere that oscillates between nostalgia and reality, becoming an average film.
