Garrel creates a sort of classically French ambience, somewhere between the nervous energy of Godard and the emotional perspicacity of Renoir.
So, Lover For a Day goes to few unexplored places. But it works sweetly within its familiar genre.
Realism keeps this story grounded, even when its characters give soaring voice to their deepest hopes and frustrations.
Though the film's stylings are a little mannered, the two female leads are compelling screen presences, especially Garrel, who relishes the melodrama of fresh heartbreak.
Lover for a Day could not be any more French (in the pejorative sense) if it tried.
Lover for a Day returns the French film-maker Philippe Garrel to his evergreen - or evermonochrome - subjects of sex, jealousy and love.
Audience Reviews for Lover For A Day (L'amant d'un jour)
Even though it is interesting and even engaging, it feels almost impossible not to leave this film with the impression that a lot was told but little was actually said in the end, with everything being mostly inconsequential and not really probing anywhere beneath the surface.
