LE' DIVORCE  
Distributor: Fox Home Entertainment 
Certificate: M15+ 
   
Cast:
Naomi Watts, Kate Hudson , Glenn Close, Stockard Channing, Stephen Fry, Matthew Modine

Unusual outing from the Merchant-Ivory stable that doesn’t seem to know whether it wants to be a romantic comedy or a serious treatise on the nature of relationships and unfortunately falls somewhere between the two.

Full of Parisian ennui and sophistication Naomi Watts is living in Paris and just about to be divorced by her philandering husband, her world crumbling around her she seeks solace in her visiting sister (a bubbly Kate Hudson) and together the pair decide to shake up the streets of gay Paree, however before you know it Kate is having an affair with a much older married man.

The girls look beautiful of course, as does Paris and the script contains plenty to enjoy but the movie overall feels a little flat, you expect slow moving with Merchant-Ivory of course but the films 112minutes really do feel like 112 minutes.

Fans of both the girls will certainly not be disappointed, either Hudson or Watts are in nearly every frame of the movie and if you are in the mood for a little Gallic je ne sai quois then you could do worse than take a gander at Le’ Divorce.
