Title: Paper dolls
Product review: I'm crazy about Richard Linklater's films except for this miniseries.Here are two people stumbling into a reunion after a one-night stand nine or ten years earlier. It's Paris. He's a writer; she works for an environmental organization. Will they? Won't they?Sounds great! Sounds romantic! Unfortunately these are two paper-thin, self-absorbed characters. They just don't matter very much. The Paris they wander through is the Paris of paper postcards. It won't, I promise, matter a whole lot whether they wind up together at the end except maybe they deserve each other!High point: a few seconds of Nina Simone singing "Just in Time" as the credits come up.
