Les Charmes discrets de la vie conjugale

The characters' internal conflicts felt very authentic and nuanced. I wonder what inspired the approach to focus on the quiet, everyday tensions rather than dramatic events.

The setting seemed to influence their decisions in subtle ways, making me curious whether the historical context was a deliberate reflection of the themes.

The story moved at a gentle pace, which allowed for reflection but sometimes felt slow. Was that intentional to mirror the mundanity of daily life?
