In a near future, a lonely writer develops an unlikely relationship with an operating system designed to meet his every need. I like Joaquin Phoenix, as an actor obviously.

For the majority of the time the film is told through Madeleine’s eyes. She is an art dealer, who meets George, falls in love and marries him. Six months later while in […]
