Paradoxically, though Muccini's Italians can seem devastatingly superficial, Klapish's motley crew seems even simpler. Even though The characters are not as young as they were, which was an element important enough to make younger audience identify with. In his thirties, Xavier and others' confused relationships reflect a bewilderment in that age group, as some choose to settle down, and some continue to seek the ephemeral. Duris is a likable maybe even lovable clod, but I'm not sure about his acting skills. And why exactly doesn't it matter?
