The set-up is similar to the walk-and-talk intimacy of Before Sunrise and Sunset, following a couple (Delpy and Adam Goldberg), she a Parisian, he a New Yorker, as they spend a weekend in her hometown. However, it's a little while before the company of these two lovers becomes a pleasure. With her black-rimmed geek glasses and semi-neurotic monologues and his hypochondriac whinging, Marion (Delpy) and Jack (Goldberg) are conceited Woody Allen wannabes, i.e., incredibly annoying. And here Delpy shows what a great writer she is, because very soon Marion and Jack are also wonderful company.
