carbuff I am writing this the day after watching it, and I am finding that it has left a pleasant aftertaste in my mind, so I'm upping my initial rating. For some unknown reason, only the French can make movies like this one without coming off as pretentious or too arty. If some brief male frontal nudity bothers you, best to skip this movie. The first two thirds are slow to build but compelling, charming in some ways, and very well-filmed in a lovely part of France in the winter. After that point it overplays the Marilyn Monroe parallels in a pretty heavy-handed way; however, just when I thought it was going to go down the tubes, it pulls back from the edge, avoids getting too mystical, and ends in a satisfying manner. In the end, a really nice, delicate French treat.

fischfin I didn't know anything about 'Nobody else but you' except some of the positive reviews I read online. I was pleasantly surprised how clever and atmospheric the movie was.This is not the greatest movie I have ever see but well worth it if you are looking for an entertaining mystery with a very original ending and that was the hook for me.There are shades of 'Fargo' or 'Twin Peaks' however they are faint and seem more accidental than intentional.The soundtrack was a plus for me as well. As of late I have not been overwhelmed by the movies coming out of France and it was great to have a cinematic experience that seemed uniquely French.

djc123-612-319888 I hadn't read any reviews of this film so I watched it with an open mind. The basic plot is pretty easy to follow. Writer arrives in a small town looking for inspiration, around the same time a local actress is found dead. So the writer decides to stick around and investigate in the hope of getting some ideas for his next book. I certainly wouldn't call it a comedy, there are a few little moments that made me smile, but that was about it. And therein lies my basic criticism of this film, I'm not exactly sure what kind of a film it is trying to be. Most of the supporting cast were very cliché (the President, the ex-boyfriend, the psychiatrist). In fact, the hotel receptionist, 'Betty' was the only supporting character who seemed believable. Like I said, I didn't know exactly what to expect, It was pleasant enough, but a lack of real 'umph' made this is one movie that I will forget about quite easily.

billcr12 David Rousseau is a crime mystery writer driving through a small town in France when he happens upon an ambulance loading a body into the back. Candice Lecoeur, a semi famous model has been found dead in the snow of an apparent suicide. Rousseau becomes obsessed with the death which closely parallels the life of Marilyn Monroe. With the premise of writing a new novel, he investigates the circumstances and final days of Lecoeur's life. He befriends a local detective and they team up to solve the possibility of a crime.Through a series of flashbacks, Lecoeur's life is examined using diaries she had written from her teens to present day. This is a top notch mystery thriller with excellent performances by the two leads, Jean-Paul Rouve as Rosseau and Sophie Quinton as Lecoeur. It is heart breaking at times but well worth your time, an 8/10.
