Hannah Brown Jerusalem Post 11/09/2023
While there is something inconsequential about the story, since its characters are so far removed from what most of us think of as real life, there is something pleasant about joining them in their universe of romance and sex. Go to Full Review Javier Ocaña El Pais (Spain) 03/24/2023
In his role, Vincent Macaigne is sweet, silly, funny and sad like he just wrapped on a Woody Allen film. In fact, he could be Woody. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Desirée De Fez Fotogramas 03/23/2023

Mouret relies on two very clear things... One is his ability as a brilliant dialogue writer (this time he co-writes with Pierre Giraud). The other, splendid actors. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Philipp Engel Cinemanía (Spain) 03/22/2023

Beyond the magnificent performances and the mastery shown in filming the minuet of emotions, the film is, quite simply, a pure delight. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Ezequiel Boetti Otroscines.com 10/21/2022
4/5
As luminous as the days Charlotte and Simon spend outdoors, Diary of a Fleeting Affair strips any moral interpretation from their adventure, limiting us to follow these adults that deep inside just want to act like children.

Toni Y 09/21/2024 A sensitive and most thoughtful movie, which shows men's sensitive side. A fleeing affair turns into something much deeper. The director leads us into seeing this even before the protagonists are fully aware of its complexity. See more Read all reviews
