Two Of Us - 2019 - 7/10
AKA - Deux

Plans accelerate.
Once Madeleine sells her apartment, she and neighbor Nina can move to Roma.
Trouble is, Madeleine has family. Two adult children and a grandson.
Nina doesn’t have family. Nor is she selling her apartment.
Madeleine’s flat is richly furnished with antiques, Nina’s is bare.
Madeleine is a “have,” Nina a “have not.”
That informed my view. One is passive money, the other the pushy digger.
Ostensibly a forbidden love story, the undercurrent of avarice was hard to shake.
Desires stream throughout. For romance, for possessions, for security.
