The film tells what two American sisters living in Paris go through: Roxanne, in a state of advanced pregnancy, is left by her husband for a Russian woman; Isabel, Roxanne's sister, takes up with a young musician and then with a middle-aged married politician. The issue of the division of possessions in Roxanne's divorce arises, preeminent amongst which possessions stands a painting which may be by Georges de la Tour.
This is my second viewing. The film casts an entertaining look into the cultural specificities of France and the U.S., and flows rather well as a story. The subplot about the mad American lawyer, who is the Russian woman's husband, is both improbable and amusing.
