movie review - The Story of Us
the journal of Michael Werneburg
twenty-eight years and a million words
Toronto, 1999.11.03
Another good job by both of the leads in this one. It's about a couple that breaks up inexorably over years of child rearing, career juggling, and personality differences. Then one day in a parking lot they make up.
What's good about this flick is the exacting detail of the relationship between the married couple. I've had all of these encounters with my former fiancée; there didn't seem to be any mis-steps.
Recommended.
