An American student in 1960s France moves in with a Parisian brother and sister who share his passion for the silver screen. It is 1968 and Matthew is a young American taken by the beauty and intrigue of the French cinema when he meets Theo and Isabelle, attractive twins with equal enthusiasm for film. The siblings invite Matthew to share their apartment while their parents are on holiday, and the threesome spend the summer discussing politics, pop icons and cinema--even as a blossoming sexual tension among them begins to build.

I understand Bernardo Bertolucci's obsession with the beauty of Eva Green, but when each openly erotic scene is slightly less effective than the previous one, this trio falls into a sadly forgettable average. The pleasantly nostalgic feeling disappears, the story drowns itself, and only occasional beautiful shots (such as Eva as Venus) can pull me out of excessive cramping. As a result, this dream leaves me completely unaffected, despite the fact that the entire form aimed much higher.

An eye candy solution to the schematism around 1968 and the affair of French cinema. Fortunately, more important than Henri Langlois is the knowledge of films with Greta Garbo and Marlene Dietrich, and the application of cinematic pleasure to domestic orgies. So you feel like masturbating in front of a picture from Blue Angel? Enjoy and forget about Godard.
