Like a painting

The story? The husband is a scientific man. He&apos;s boring and severe with his wife and two children. The woman is the victim. She&apos;s bored with her husband and her life. And here comes the third one : a German translater. He&apos;s young, handsome, loves life and the children can play with him. You know what happens next! O.K., we saw that a thousand times in movies! But this simple French movie is very beautiful, because of the photography. Views of countryside looks like the works of a great painter. Indoor photography is also superb! This movie looks like Terence Malick before Malick.  I really don&apos;t understand why the Internet movie database says this movie is like Le dîner de cons (1998)! It&apos;s not a comedy and had really nothing to do with this movie! If you want to compare, look at Jean Renoir&apos;s Une partie de campagne (but that Renoir movie was in Black and white!) Or compare it to any Malick picture.
