what a bunch of core plot crap in an otherwise great movie ...

I read about all this crap regarding European cultures, French in particular, allowing this kind of, ahem, consenting adultery, and I'm thinking... "what a bunch of Hollywood-esque crap is that"? Where are these people travel too? What do they consume there? Folks, things like that DO NOT happen...period. The movie is great and the acting is good, but give me a break a,d snap out of it!
