What Falling in Love Is About

Two people who commute into New York by train meet when their bags are mixed up in a bookshop. Both are married. The film does not present the affair as excitement; the narrative is more interested in the silences between the meetings and shows both characters with their spouses. The station is used as a recurring place. Ulu Grosbard directed, with Robert De Niro and Meryl Streep, who had appeared together before in a very different film. Who it's for: those who like calm, conversational adult drama. Who it's not for: viewers who find infidelity narratives uncomfortable; the film takes no side.
