Frances H There were things I liked about this film. One of its messages was that you can't have "just sex." Human emotions always get in the way. liked that message. However, the ending shows that even so-called intelligent people can misread another person's signals, and this case that is fatal for the lovers involved. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/21/14 Full Review Audience Member I LOVE this movie so much! It's so cute and sweet and touching. I love how you never get to see what's going on behind the hotel doors,it's like a mystery and you have to use your own imagination to know the sexual activity that's going on. Beautiful and stunning movie! The ending was sooo sad though but,altogether,this was an amazing movie! :) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Um casal se conhece por meio de um anúncio, encontra-se em um café e vai para um hotel.
