I have never been adverse to walking out of a film if it doesn't engage me . Some cinematic experiences have been so dire (I remember one painful viewing of the terrible Dogville (2003) in Sheffield's Showroom) I could have quite easily walked out, then, asked for a my money back AND then demanded compensation for sitting through three hours of pure bullshit.
Tonight's middle class French film (English title : Let's talk about the rain) was such a film. I won't bother giving it a review here, as the whole thing lacked any narrative drive, so after an hour of pure tedium I walked out.......
Or, "Ne Parlez-moi de la pluie"!!
