It's the reverse of Camille Rewinds (contains spoilers)


In this film, Marie (Juliette Binoche) travels forwards into the future, while Camille (Noémie Lvovsky) travels back to her past. I like both films.
Things I found similar in both films:
*Both films reference Barack Obama as the first black president of the United States
*Both films reference Michael Jackson's death
*Both films have the heroine tackling relationship problems - Marie tries to stop her marriage breakup. Camille tries to stop her teenage-self from falling in love with her future husband.
* Both films are high-concept on the surface with underlying low-concept themes like accepting some things such as death cannot be prevented. In Marie's case, she never knew her father died and Camille does all she could to stop her mother from dying of a stroke.

I haven't seen Camille Rewinds, but one hopes it would be more entertaining than this misfire of a movie.🐭
