See this film for so many reasons. A most stunning 22 year old Charlotte Rampling and a very seductive 28 year old Sam Waterston exhibit great chemistry
in a background of gorgeous shots of Europe. This is a "buddy" film but there are complications.... What's lovely about it is the scenario is so subtle and believable. One of the unsung heroes here is the exquisite music composed by Laurence Rosenthal which acts as another character in the film. The initial meeting of Taylor (Waterston) and Marty (Rampling) in a French cafe lasts little over a minute but is given timeless wings by the introduction of the beautiful theme on flute and piano. It elicits a feeling of innocence and eroticism and honestly, it's one of the sexiest things I've seen in a move.
