Review of 2 Days in New York (2012) by Jeff S — 14 Aug 2012
Moments of genuine life mixed with intriguing scenes (e.g. a favorite one with Vincent Gallo) that reveal Delpy's Frenchness. She, by the way, has not lost a bit of her charm, but is the mom now instead of the street-roving, Ethan-Hawke-doting belle.
Chris Rock was not only likable but was also believable. Not sure he had a romantic chemistry with Delpy. Some scenes were gratuitously and stereotypically "New York," yet Delpy's and Landeau's lack of knowledge of the city was betrayed through this.
Still, her admiration of NYC, even as one not born here, comes through in a film that is not unlike a Woody Allen flick, including the music and end titles. My wife Karen and I enjoy her immensely, yet find it odd how she appears so preoccupied with "cunnilingus," both in her song lyrics and filmmaking.
