Romantics Anonymous
September. 22,2020Angélique makes beautiful chocolates, carefully infused with all the emotion that seems to overwhelm her in daily life. Jean-René runs a chocolate factory that is running out of steam, rather like his own existence. Both seek help from the usual sources: Jean-René favours self-help tapes and Angélique joins a support group, Les Émotifs Anonymes. Romantics Anonymous is an unusual and tender love story in which the obstacles to happiness are not the usual external barriers, but those sneaky little ones we know all too intimately: the ones within.

As Good As It Gets
It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
