The romance did not appeal me and the second half of the movie is not only predictable but quite weak and a cliche .. however, strong performances by the protagonists - Juliette Binoche and Clive Owen come to rescue and help the movie 'kind of' earns 3 stars what otherwise would be 2..
An interesting plot in first half - two honor classes' teachers collide and that triggers a war between words and pictures at a private high school ..
