Jet Lag (2003)
Director: Danièle Thompson
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Light bourgeois comedy with Binoche's cosmetician Rose continuously bumping into Reno's fatigued salesman Félix in the the failing modern-tech surroundings of Charles de Gaulle airport. López gives a typically striking cameo as Rose's bastard of a lover and the severe Reno and ditzy Binoche are likewise less than ingratiating. The couple end up in the Hilton swapping opinions, prejudices and confidences - but will Félix make his funeral arrangements and Binoche her budget jaunt to Mexico? Hard to care much.Author: WH
