534.0. "Intersection" by 49438::BARTAK (Andrea Bartak, Vienna, Austria) Thu Mar 17 1994 05:40

    Yesterday I've seen a preview over here from the new Richard
    Gere/Sharon Stone here.
    The german title is "Begegnungen" - which means "Encounters" - is this
    the original title ?  Anybody seen it ?
    It is a remake of the french movie "Die Dinge des Lebens" (freely
    translated "The things of life") with Michel Piccoli and Romy
    Schneider.

    My guess would be the movie "Intersection".  I haven't seen it yet. 
    I'm waiting for the video.

    Don't wait for the video. I saw it when it first came out and was
    extremely disappointed. Sorry to see Mr. Gere in back-to-back flops
    (Mr. Jones & Intersection).
    
    Maybe, with luck **/****.

    I could not wait for the video and watched it yesterday in the cinema.
    I must say, surprisingly, I liked it. I've seen the original french
    movie by Claude Sautet (with Romy Schneider and Michel Piccoli) many
    years ago and must say I found the new version better. (although
    it looks I'm quite alone with my opinion ;-) ). 
    BTW, "Intersection" seems to be a bigger success here in Europe than in US
    (where I undestand it was a flop?).

    p.s. maybe one should move related notes to a separate topic?

    Saw the video yesterday.  Up until the last 10 minutes, this 
    was the most boring thing I'd ever seen.

    What I liked about the last 10 minutes was how the Sharon
    Stone figure treated the girlfriend...didn't show her the 
    letter.  Likewise how the girlfriend didn't tell the ex-wife
    that she was up there to marry Gere.
