 "Two Lovers", directed by James Gray, is a love story that takes place in Brooklyn, New York, where Leonard (Joaquin Phoenix) meets Sandra (Vinessa Shaw) and Michelle (Gwyneth Paltrow). Leonard has some mental and psychological issues due to his ex-fiancée leaving him. He lives with his parents and works in his father's dry cleaning store. Everything seems to be meaningless to him, until he meets two important women. Sandra, a well-behaved, graceful and quiet Jewish girl, was brought up in a middle class family, and is the daughter of Leonard's father's business partner. Michelle, who is outgoing, attractive and passionate, is from a family that was wealthy until her father lost all their money. She's Leonard's new neighbor. Whom will Leonard choose? People are expecting to see Leonard's struggle of choosing between his two lovers. However, for Leonard, the decision could not be easier; it's the surrounding circumstances that make things more difficult. Michelle, played by Academy Award winner Gwyneth Paltrow, shines in this film. Sandra, on the other hand, seems gloomy compared with the other two main characters. Vinessa Shaw is a talented actress, but Sandra actually is a flat character, and takes more of a supporting role. This film will appeal to lovers, singles who have difficulties in choosing loved ones, and anyone who appreciates Gwyneth Paltrow.
