I love this scene. It's possibly the most honest scene of the movie. While the French is spoken with a sense of command, it still has that unapologetic American dialect. Margo really delivers a true sense of discovery here. Bravo!
Why do we have to go elsewhere to "find" some of our truths? Wizard of Oz: no place like home. This vignette: joy & sadness = being alive. My first trip to London: tears because I went somewhere I had always wanted to visit, which for me meant that I liked myself. I made a dream come true.
I'm from there, the first scene with the hotel is at 1min of my place, beautiful part of the movie, best part of the movie, that's where i grew, not only phisycaly but same view of the life :)
this segment seems so close to my heart! i learnt french 1 year ago too because i love french culture, and am currently alone in paris visiting as i'm typing this too! i feel so much for carol, i'm currently going thru the same emotions of happiness and loneliness at the same time, and watching the sunset over the river seine just yesterday, i realised that i have fallen in love with paris, just as it has fallen in love with me too. :)
this is my favorite part of the film. I also have the dream to be a postman in Paris. I learn French and want to go to Paris!!! I love Paris before I met Paris.

Bittersweet. Just like Paris. Felt the same with my first step there. And I've been wishing to return from the very moment I left.

This "pièce" it's wonderful!
The way she describes her feeling of joy and sadness is terrific... C'est trop genial!

This was my favorite segment in the entire movie and I'm glad to see I'm not alone. Margo Martindale, je t'aime!

margo martindale should be handed an award for this splendid performance. she's under appreciated but hits it out of the park everytime!
