I turned on the TV and it just happened to be this film. I had never heard of Gina Gershon before. I agree with Zoltan. I liked the film, but really it got so annoying that she hardly ever completely closed her mouth. Very irritating! Otherwise it was enjoyable and it was interesting to learn that Gina is Jewish (if you see the movie, you will understand why I mention this). Prague is indeed a very beautiful and interesting city and a good place for romance. I myself have a Tsjechian (spelling?)grandmother and great-grandparents, although I never met them. When you see the movie, perhaps you will be able to understand why. Greetings from Dorith

I liked this movie and I think that the plot is good. It's a story about love.Love between two very different people. On one side there is young doctor Lauren Graham (Gina Gershon) and on the other older book writer Jiri Kolmar (Rade Serbedzija). But what is really important is that love knows no limits. Age, nationality, past, nothing is important when two people are in love.It's a great chance for Americans to meet Rade Serbedzija, one of the best Croatian actors. He is very good in this role, very calm and his emotions comes from his eyes. An excellent role. Gina Gershon is also good in her role. Why I liked this movie beside this things that I mentioned? It's because of Prague. I've been there three times but when I see it on film all my memories comes back again. Prague is magnificent city and it is perfect for filming a movie. All those old houses, streets, bridges, so beautiful and it's a perfect set for love story of this movie.I recommend this movie. Because of Prague, good plot and good actors. See it and enjoy it.

Two thumbs up in our household: we enjoyed the story a lot, probably in part because we both know Prague and are familiar with Eastern Europe. This film raises excellent questions and haunts you in a way. I discovered Gina Gershon and was impressed by her charisma. Just wish she could close her mouth sometimes (it remains open in 98% of the film in a distracting manner, as if she was constantly pouting!) but I definitely want to check out her other films.

My god this movie is awfully boring. I am a big fan of Gina Gershon, when I rented this movie I expected a romantic drama, and some great performance from Gershon. Gershon is great as always, but she is not right actress for this role, she is too good for Rade Serbedzija. The romance between Gershon and Serbedzija's characters is too unconvincing. And I absolutely hated Serbedzija's character (a wonman organizer), he is not charming in anyway in the movie. How did Dr. Lauren Graham (Gershon) is beyond my comprehension. Maybe Sean Connery, Robert DeNiro or Harrison Ford would have done a better job on this role, but they don't have the European-ish looking I guess. Any way, I was so bored druing the movie. If you are looking for a good Gina Gershon movie, check out Bound, her best film so far. If you are looking for a romantic film about a younger woman and an older man, try some Harrison Ford or Sean Connery movies. Gina Gershon is so underrated, and she deserves better chance than this, I wish her to make better choice in the future.
