Review of For a Woman (2013) by Marta R — 26 Dec 2014
This period piece was perfectly framed with a complex romantic and political intrigue set in post WWII/Holocaust era in France that unfortunately fizzled which I blame entirely on the dull actress Melanie Thierry.
**SPOILER ALERT** She failed to convey the complex emotions of a character who survived and escaped the horrors of concentration camps to having the audacity to betray her savior husband by flirting with the notion of an extramarital affair with his brother.
I remember that this was the same actress in the equally dull "The Princess of Montpensier" who killed what could have been a romantic swashbuckling story by failing to convince as the titular princess capable of inspiring so many men to kill for her affections.
