Not Here to Be Loved (Je Ne Suis Pas La Pour Etre Aime) Reviews
Independent
The only film worth seeing this week is Not Here To Be Loved, a modest French comedy that has more expressive subtlety and romance in it than Soderbergh and co will ever manage, even unto Ocean's Umpteen.

The small scale of this melancholic romantic comedy is offset by its big themes. Bleak, well observed and dryly funny.

A very impressive debut and one of the best French films of the year.

This tale of unlikely love is an equally unlikely charmer.
