What L'Amour aux temps du choléra is
A 19th-century romance begins when a man survives a fall only to insist he’s been devoted to his wife for decades. Back in youth, a lovesick telegraph worker pursues a merchant’s daughter who gradually cools on the idea. The film settles for pretty scenery and a parade of starched collars instead of actual chemistry.
