Watched online, ok print.
5 songs in the Soundtracks; none are the classical pieces "played" by KM.
This feels like a TV film, perhaps because so many of the stars are known for TV. But it's a slight film, so that contributes. So does the subject matter: woman wearing a metal leg brace is used to rejection for her difference, so she's a wallflower. Then she has the bright idea of going to a ski resort with a cast instead of the brace. Oo-la-la.
This has no business being tagged with genre Music. The flute time in minimal and infrequent; when she goes off to a ski resort, we never see or hear her music, and that's more than half the film.
Although she's engaged to TD (or did she break it off before embarking for Europe), she sleeps with 2 guys in France. The end of the film makes it seem as though she'll continue with MO (the 2nd partner) for a while longer.
It's not a horrible film. I just want to tag it as Avoid.
