The Woman In The Fifth - 2011 - 5/10
AKA - La Femme du Vème

A throwback to the incomprehensible arthouse fare of the 70’s.
Writer Ethan Hawke moves to Paris to be closer to his daughter.
Had he been in prison? A mental institute?
He is penniless, yet lands a job watching monitors for a gangster? Drug peddler? Accountant?
Meets a potential literary muse in Kristin Scott Thomas. Is she … or maybe … but then … say wha … ?
The old phrase, “That’s why they call 'em furreign films,” definitely applies here.
A confused jumble.
