Superior Sci Fiction Film
Successful romantic novel writer, disillusioned with "love", retreats to the countryside for a while.
She takes with her a romantic companion, a life-like robot who can be 'programmed' at different levels.
And it is that programming and re-programming which is at the center of this drama.
First rate casting, with all the actors giving convincing and watchable performances. My only gripe is that the basic story is hardly original and seems to have been done in similar ways many times. Nonetheless the two leads are excellent and kept me viewing until the end.
