Paris Can Wait stars Diane Lane (Judge Dredd) as Anne, a woman at a crossroads in her life.
Long married to successful, driven but inattentive movie producer Michael (Alec Baldwin), she unexpectedly finds herself taking a car trip from Cannes to Paris with a business associate of her husband, Jacques (Arnaud Viard). What should be a seven-hour drive turns into a carefree two-day adventure replete with diversions involving picturesque sights, fine food and wine, humor, wisdom and romance, reawakening Anne’s senses and giving her a new lust for life.
Written and directed by Eleanor Coppola, I was surprised how charming this film looks from the trailer, as it’s not normally my cup of tea… maybe I’m mellowing in my old age? I hope it does see the light of day over here, soon.
In the meantime, Paris Can Wait – also known as Bonjour Anne – is released in the US on May 12th, but as of yet there’s no UK date.
