It’s not often I leave a movie half way through but I had to with Orly.

Amidst the impersonal hubbub of Paris’ Orly Airport, strangers meet, secrets are revealed, and sudden intimacies develop in this beautifully observed mosaic of lives in transit.

I don’t know if the volume was too low or the background noise was too high but I couldn’t understand a word they were saying. Plus the actors, in particular Bruno Todeschini, seemed to mumble all their lines! Maybe it was his Swiss accent (does he have a Swiss accent? lol), I don’t know. All I know is that I couldn’t follow what they were saying and I was feeling particularly impatient, so I left. I thought it was going to be a good movie too, but it seemed like a bit of a snore to me.
