Changing Times

What would you do in middle age with the realization that you let the love of your life slip away on the tides of arrogant youth? Some would pine and look back through the misted panes of the past. Others would throw caution to the winds and ride a wave of recklessness to bring their love back. Antoine (Gérard Depardieu) does the latter when he moves between continents in the hope of winning Cécile (Catherine Deneuve) back. The fact that she has a family with a host of their own problems does not faze him. But then again if he was fazed by it, one would not call it surfing the waves of recklessness.
