"Winter Heart" is a character study which examines what happens when a beautiful violinist falls in love with a violin maker who is devoid of the passion and emotion which is so much a part of French film and life in general. The antithesis of almost everything Hollywood represents as it does not depict the presence of things but the absence of things, "Un Coeur un Hiver" is more interesting than entertaining and will intrigue some and bore the socks off others. A smart film for smart people but placid waters for popcorn flick surfers.
