This girl needs to be on medication.


Okay, so I'll admit I'm only halfway through, but...how does this have a 7.0 rating?

These two have zero chemistry, and every two seconds Fanny is being so incredibly, ridiculously melodramatic that I cannot take their story seriously.

I legit laughed out loud when she yelled at the cat in the midst of a breakdown.



What I've got in my head you can't buy, steal, or borrow. I believe in live and let live.

From your message on this board, I take it you either have never been in love or are a man. Or both. So which one is it? Did I get it right? I've found this film to be of sublime beauty. Although the story isn't much, the way it is conveyed amazes and enlightens. Some love stories need not be physical or materialized or consummated in a way that's obvious for the rest of the people witnessing it. The heart can bare feelings superior to that. But, of course, not all people can or are aware of that. So the way I see it you might not fall in this category. Women tend to act unhinged when in love, you know. Most women have been in Fanny's mental state at some point in their lives, including me. But no, I did not yell at a cat.

Okay, I'll admit, that's when I stopped reading.🐭
