Everyone Else - 2009 - 4/10
AKA - Alle Anderen

Relationship drama.
A tenuous couple vacation in Sardinia, gradually realize they are incompatible.
He is a promising, young architect, serious, and stems from money.
She is poorer, would rather dance than read, and works as a music rep.*
The spark – connection – intimacy dissipates scene by scene.
Slow, talky. Characters neither likable nor unlikable. Boring.
Too bad this cannot be bottled, cure for insomnia = one spoonful.

*The girl worked as a Uni label rep. Say what?
Most music field reps got canned from 2000 on, in increasing numbers as the filesharing decade progressed.
That lack of accuracy, one of dozens of missteps, make the characters and film less credible.
Had she been a bounty hunter, I would have found more believable.
