Real changes in our lives don't often occur outside the interiors in which we reside (our homes, our bodies) and rarely in moments that would require a tracking shot (I wonder if our critic appreciated "Amour"?). Bertolucci was already moving toward these confines with "The Dreamers" and he further refines that trajectory here. Don't confuse expecting your audience to work at finding the internal conflict and resolution of characters as a lack of vigor. If you felt the only suspense in "Me and You" is whether or not our protagonists will get caught, then you obviously ignored the hugely affecting study of relationships and how modern society affects those relationships that this film offers with insight and intelligence.

Plus seems nowadays more master directors prefer doing simple story films.
