Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Le Divorce
Kate Hudson and Naomi Watts star in this clever analysis of French vs. American social customs and young infatuation vs. jaded cynicism. Hudson plays an American visiting her sister, Roxeanne,(Watts) in France during the time of her divorce and pregnancy, but soon finds herself courted by a rich Frenchman and in danger of making the same mistake Roxeanne made in this often sad, but often absurdly clever look at love and responsibility.
