The Beating Of Butterfly Wings - 2000 - 5/10
AKA - Le Battement d’ailes du Papillon // Happenstance

French fluff about the so-called butterfly effect. Myriad souls connect, intersect, disconnect.
Well worn myth of how a chance act or word can impact others.
Yes, we think our words or deeds are so important.
This film flits from one loser to another, eventually going nowhere.

I didn’t buy the reactions and interactions, though those watching with me were female, and they did.
In fact, there was a protracted discussion afterward.
For me, Life is random, our choices limited at best.
Everyone else, held that Fate overrules Choice.
If you are in the latter category, you may rate this higher.
Unforgettable scene involving a cockroach.
