A nicely paced (meaning not frenetic) relational drama from France. Anna is a young woman seeking the help of an psychoanalyst. When she takes a right out of the elevator instead of a left, she enters the office of William, a second generation tax attorney and quintessential bachelor/homebody. Before he can bring himself to clarify his position, Anna has divulged some difficulty with her marriage and William is feeling a bit to embarrassed to point out the truth. While the ruse is relatively quickly resolved, Anna continues to use William as her sounding board and the the two are each changed by the encounter. In the end, this is a pleasant film that pulls you along in spite of the occasional speed bump and gives a satisfying resolution that fits the change each character chased.
