The Art of Love
movie
The Art of Love (l'art d'aimer) is composed of several chapters following several Parisian couples. Isabelle (Julie Depardieu) has not had sex in a year. She declines an offer from her friend Zo\u00e9 (Pascale Arbillot) to borrow her husband and instead winds up impersonating Am\u00e9lie (Judith Godr\u00e8che), another friend who cannot bring herself to sleep with her buddy, Boris (Laurent Stocker). The singleton Achille (Fran\u00e7ois Cluzet) thinks his prayers have been answered when his svelte new neighbor (Fr\u00e9d\u00e9rique Bel) knocks on his door wearing a negligee and suggests they have an affair. In another chapter, a middle-aged couple's marriage is threatened when wife Emmanuelle (Ariane Ascaride) finds herself lusting after every attractive man she lays eyes upon and a pair of young lovers (Elodie Navarre and Gaspard Ulliel) discover the pangs of jealousy.
