...local nightclub. These competing rhythms form the pulse of the film, presenting Denis’ complex aesthetic.After “Beau Travail,” Denis went on to make “Trouble Every Day,” perhaps her most provocative and controversial film.

After nine tepid episodes (and a subpar season of Grey's) last year, there's less reason than ever to care about the dramedies and quirky cases of sexy doctors at a ritzy "wellness center," and the return episode trudges along like a 44-min. chore (even if there is some resonance, in this pregnancy-besotted election season, to the reproductive-medicine subject matter...
