Her handsome lover Loic is madly in love with her, her paintings are winning wide acclaim, and a glorious future seems all but assured.

The worst are not dwarfs, as the Czech classic Jára Cimrman believes, but a blindly in love and heart-broken erotomaniac, and Audrey Tautou in an unusual role will convince you of that. If you’ve seen Fatal Attraction with Michael Douglas, you know where you stand, the premise is similar. The opening credits are full of hearts and for the next 30 minutes or so it looks like a lovefest, but then it takes an interesting turn and the ending is more than satisfying.

Until the point, not at all surprising or groundbreaking thriller with unbelievable Audrey. The discovery of the truth in the second half is predictable, and everything is saved by relatively brisk direction. Without the possibility of wishing someone a happy ending, it is only a timid genre attempt.
