Review

The sophomore curse strikes again as Stillman's follow-up to his acclaimed Metropolitan fails to totally capture the freshness and ingenuity of his first film. Set in Spain during the last days of the Cold War, the story follows the romantic exploits of two Americans living in Barcelona. Nichols, sort of a low-rent Hugh Grant, plays a dweeby salesman whose cousin (Eigeman), a Navy attaché, arrives unexpectedly. This gives way to the two aimlessly musing about life, death, romance, politics, and whatever else randomly enters their minds. A little too chatty for its own good, Stillman's script occasionally offers amusing and accurate observations on modern relationships. Though the supporting characters aren't as well-defined as the leads -- especially the women's roles, which are nothing more than window dressing.
