I have to confess this is something I watched long time ago-a year or two perhaps? So all the details are lost to me. One thing I do remember though is the heavy load of sadness I felt as the screen faded to black. The title refers to 5 crucial moments between a couple, each segments are brilliantly structured and directed by François Ozon. In the end, even a beautiful blossom of emotion cannot withstand the passing of time.

Since the film progresses in reverse, don't be put off by Mr. Freiss's initial older appearance; he becomes more beautiful and charming as the film progresses- I just love the wrinkles on his face, especially when he smiles.
