This past weekend I jumped up to 36% fluent in French according to Duolingo. The fluency tracking is more inspiring to me than other elements of Duolingo, so I"m happy they added this feature.
This weekend I also watched Happily Ever After, a 2004 French film starring Charlotte Gainsbourg. The movie was charming and beautifully shot. It's on Netflix if you're looking for French films about long-term satisfaction (or lack thereof) in monogamy. Great performances all around, beautiful Paris apartments, and a lengthy Johnny Depp cameo.

I was oddly moved by a scene set in the Paris Virgin Megastore (it closed in 2014, alas), where I bought my first Françoise Hardy album when I was 20. Ah, memories!
