A Good Woman

I’ve seen A Good Woman (starring Scarlet Johansson and Helen Hunt) twice, and it is good. If you’re interested in what it’s about, here’s a short summary (don’t worry, it won’t spoil too many details):

1. Goodie A & B are newly-weds.
2. Baddie A comes to town and seduces Goodie B.
3. Goodie A finds out about this.
4. It turns out Goodie B really didn’t have an affair with Baddie A.
5. Everything is restored, but only Baddie A (who has become Goodie C by now) knows the whole truth about the misunderstanding.

There’s much more to it than that, obviously, but I don’t want to spoil it for you. The movie is light-hearted, witty, and the story has much more depth than in most other movies. I recommend it to those who want something that’s a bit more intellectually challenging than watching stuff explode. If you only want explosions, rather watch Transformers 2. ;)
