A sea captain, Jakob (Gijs Naber), longs for a stable life on dry land and decides to marry the first woman who walks into the café where he finds himself. When Lizzy (Léa Seydoux) walks through the door, a story of love and heartbreak begins, marked by men's ancestral fear of female infidelity. (Seville European Film Festival)
Reviews (1)
Ildikó Enyedi slightly disappointed me with her new film. After the extremely original picture On Body and Soul, she comes back with a love story, but this time it's a bit more classic. The director's distinctive signature and at times almost magical poetry cannot be denied in this romantic drama The Story of My Wife, but the viewer's attention wanes due to the unnecessarily drawn-out plot. The reason may lie in the book, which I haven't read, so I can't really say in this respect. (65%)
