The previews for Words and Pictures seem to show a sweet romantic comedy involving the 50+ crowd. And who doesn't love Clive Owen and Juliette Binoche! So knowing that this was not going to interest Rob, I went with a friend. Well, all I've got to say is, the previews did not accurately depict what this film was about. Jack (Owen) is a pretty healthy alcoholic, which is never explained, and Dina (Binoche) has her own problems--rheumatoid arthritis. Pretty sexy, huh? There were some laughs in the midst of all the darkness, but the film couldn't decide what it wanted to be--a dark, human drama or clever, adult humor. Too bad, good actors.
