Plot: A crime writer living in Venice while working on his new novel meets and soon marries his real-estate agent.
Review: “Unforgivable” is all about relationships. Told in a simple
manner, the ideas flow, without really being engrossing. Veteran actor André
Dussolier plays a writer who can’t write when in love. Besides, his head is too
stuffed with concerns related to other people around him: a missing daughter; a
wife who is much younger than him; a problematic son of a dying friend. With a
structure organized in four parts, each one representing a different season
(Eric Rohmer did the same approach with great success but in four different movies),
“Unforgivable” shows baffled feelings within a futile imbroglio of
relationships.
