Synopsis:
Sabine (Béatrice Romand), a 25 year old arts student, is having an affair with a married man, Simon (Féodor Atkine). When she realises that he will never leave his wife for her, Sabine decides to go out and find herself a husband. At a wedding party, her friend Clarisse (Arielle Dombasle) introduces her to a 25 year old lawyer named Edmond (André Dussollier). In an instant, Sabine decides that Edmond is the man she will marry, but he disappears before they have a chance to speak properly together. Obsessed with the idea of marrying Edmond, Sabine repeatedly calls him, not realising that marriage is the last thing on Edmond's mind....

Avoid - A Good Marriage review by EJ

Spoiler Alert
04/04/2019

Disappointing and annoying. In the same vain as a Woody Allen movie; looking at the mindset of the characters and how they fit (or do not fit) together. The trouble with this, is the main character is such a spoilt child in an adult’s body, who sulks and tantrums so much you want to dislike her and press the fast forward button: Which I did! Poor acting from Beatrice Romand doesn’t do it any favours either.

My first watch of a film by this director, but this is not an intelligent one.
