Why watch this film?
A pleasant Danish romantic comedy to watch. With a hackneyed script about two characters who don't like each other and end up falling into the improbability of love, the story is pretty and marks the first romance of director Mehdi Avaz (known for action films such as 'Collision'). The plot follows a Danish chef (Anders Matthesen) who goes to Tuscany to take care of some business and ends up meeting Sophia (Cristiana Dell'Anna), a woman who will change the focus of his trip - and his life, why not? Adding all the possible clichés, the film still manages to have charm thanks to gastronomy, which is inserted in a very constructive way, showing the importance of appreciating local producers. Of course we are talking about the Tuscany region, but it is worth noting. In short, if you are looking for a pleasant movie to watch without great pretensions, you have come to the right film.

A Beautiful Life
A Danish Netflix Original film that tells the story of Elliott, a fisherman with a wonderful voice who gets the opportunity of a lifetime when he is discovered and partnered with Lilly, a distant music producer. Discovered artists, frustrated music careers, budding romances in the recording studio... if the premise of A Beautiful Life sounds a bit like A Star is Born, it's because it seems like a watered-down version of that. Which is not necessarily a bad thing: if you enjoy sweet romances with tragic stories and love that conquers all, you will certainly enjoy it.

The Nature of Love
Sophia, a 40-year-old philosophy professor, has been in a stable and conventional marriage to Xavier for a decade. From gallery openings to endless dinner parties, ten years have flown by. When Sophia meets Sylvain, a craftsman renovating the couple’s new country house, Sophia’s world is turned upside down. The two begin a passionate affair fueled by their irresistible physical connection. However, Sophia comes from a wealthy family of intellectuals, while Sylvain comes from a working-class family of manual workers. As they get to know each other on a deeper level, Sophia begins to question her own values after abandoning herself to her great romantic impulses. Director Monia Chokri delivers a smart and sexy romantic comedy, infusing it with spiky energy and fresh perspective, upending genre and gender conventions.

Goyo
Goyo is a romantic film directed by Argentine filmmaker Marcos Carnevale (known for movies like Elsa & Fred). It's about a museum guide with Asperger's syndrome (Nicolás Furtado) who unexpectedly falls in love with the museum's new security guard (Nancy Dupláa), an older woman disillusioned with love. The story is appreciated for its touches of humor and the portrayal of a romantic relationship for a neurodivergent person (in this case, on the autism spectrum). However, the story is somewhat superficial and melodramatic. You'll enjoy it if you're looking for a tender, uncomplicated romance to enjoy with a partner.

Jeanne du Barry
Jeanne du Barry is a French period drama, directed and starring Maïwenn (known for The Fifth Element), about the courtesan and the last official mistress of King Louis XV (Johnny Depp) of France. The film chronicles her life from her childhood and formative years as a servant's daughter, to her rise in French society through sex, alliances, and strategic marriages. Although well-crafted, it is a very conventional drama that, in its making, invites not very favorable comparisons with Barry Lyndon. While Kubrick's classic manages to be a very subtle satire, Maïwenn's film takes itself too seriously. This, considering its representation of the female gender and the backgrounds of its two main stars, not only does not help but invites questioning the purpose of telling this story, with so little hope for its protagonist. You will enjoy it if you like period dramas with sumptuous costumes, or if you are an avid follower of Johnny Depp.
