Eva may not be the best Jeanne Moreau film, but there is enough to like here to make it worth watching, even though the story is frankly dark and depressing, and the characters are all highly unlikable. I do appreciate the juxtaposition of ugly characters and beautiful settings, and I also felt that I was given insight into a certain subculture of European society. Too bad it is in English, rather than French and Italian, as it should be. Or maybe not, since the author protagonist is Welsh?
