I had no idea this movie was supposed to take place in France until a character mentioned going to the Eiffel Tower. I figured this was a bad sign of things to come. There were several instances when the background music almost drowned out the dialogue.
The disorientation continues throughout. The editing of this film felt disjointed. There were multiple instances of cutting between two scenes in a way that felt unnecessary and jarring. It interrupted the pacing of a scene.
The most impressive part of this film is how many scenes there are of Molly Ringwald wearing just a towel in public spaces. It's a surprisingly high number and there seems to be no reason for it, unless there's some symbolism totally lost on me.

Although the acting in this movie is really not all that great, and ms. Ringwalds singing attemps might make your feet cringe, it is in fact a rather chraming little movie, and Molly Ringwald shows the stuff that made a lot of guys growing up in the 80's have a wicked crush on her. Ofcourse the ending is predictable from the first 2 minutes into the movie, but it does have it moments.
This movie is very underrated. I believe that the people who rated it didn't really give it a chance.
The chemistry between Lisa and Charlie, played by Molly Ringwald and Patrick Dempsey, seems legitimate. The only thing I wish were different would be Julie and Daniel admitting each other's feelings for one another. Other than that, it was a pleasant and enjoyable film overall.

To the other people who have evaluated this film: I have seen a lot worse.
The story centers around a young couple who write and win an award for the best song in a film. While on the dais, the guy (Patrick Dempsey), proposes marriage. You would think this would be the perfect ending. Rather, it's an imperfect beginning to a rather fair film.
The couple soon divorce due to a misunderstanding and go their separate ways. Fast forward to several years later, where Dempsey, now in real-estate and engaged to wed his partner, meets up with his ex-wife. (Molly Ringwald They are given the opportunity to write a song for Moishe, yes I mean Moishe, who is now happily wed to his wife Christine. Moishe and Christine? Lord bless those inter-faith marriages!
This highly predictable film is noteworthy for its light comedy. Will they write the hit song? How will they be drawn back into love? It's highly predictable but somewhat amusing.

I was looking through what movies Patrick Dempsey had been in on this site, and I found that he was in this and that Molly Ringwald was in it too, and I really like her too. So I decided to get it, it was only £1 something for a new copy on amazon. I had read bad reviews of it but it was so cheap that even if I didn't like it, it wasn't like I was wasting money, and I'm glad I got it now, as it was quite good and I would watch it again.
It wasn't the best movie i've ever seen, and it was slow and a bit boring in some parts, and Lysette's character even though I think she's a good actress (I've liked her in other things too like The Bill), her character was very annoying. But I did like Molly and Patrick's characters in this, and that Donnie guy was quite funny.
It really is worth watching if you're a fan of Patrick or Molly, or even both like me. Patrick looks gorgeous in it! So I think even if I hadn't of liked the storyline at all, I still would have enjoyed watching it for him.
I really thought it had some cute moments in it too, especially at the end!

- GoofsWhen Charlie introduces Lisa to Daniel, he calls her Lisa Hunter Hollis. With Hunter being what was Lisa's married surname and Hollis her maiden surname, it should have been Lisa Hollis Hunter instead.
