Goodbye First Love: movie review

French indie 'Goodbye First Love' leaves one wondering why she didn't dump the guy earlier.

Serious-minded 15-year-old Camille (Lola Cr?ton) falls for the older and more footloose Sullivan (Sebastian Urzendowsky), who loves her, but loves even more exploring the world on his own. She overcomes her disappointment and finds strength in a new relationship, but, of course, Sullivan is waiting in the wings.

Hansen-L?ve wants us to experience all this as a kind of?amour fou,?but all I kept thinking was that Sullivan was a prize jerk and Camille would be well rid of him. Grade: C (Unrated.)
