A film of precious construction but precious little insight, this drama of young adult crisis mistakes mere mundanity for a stirring creative statement.<\/p>\n<p>Jane (Bosworth), an American freelance writer, accompanies her British husband Leonard (Iddo Goldberg), a viola player, on a business trip to the island of Ischia, off the Amalfi Coast. She&#8217;s working on a vaguely defined book idea informed by tape-recorded conversations about World War II with her now-deceased grandmother (narrated by Claire Bloom) when she stumbles across 19-year-old Caleb (Jamie Blackley) while sightseeing one afternoon. A cautious dance of (mostly unrequited) flirtation ensues, but after introducing Caleb to her husband Jane tumbles into an affair with him.<\/p>\n<p>Bosworth previously collaborated with Coiro on &#8220;L!fe Happens,&#8221; a lively, Los Angeles-set comedy. That this film is almost 180 degrees tonally removed from that work is totally fine, but &#8220;And While We Were Here&#8221; lacks any sort of specificity that would make it stand out or give it a palpable emotional connection. Coiro was inspired to write the script by a series of audio tapes she made with her own late grandmother, but if Jane is to be her stand-in she gives Bosworth only a series of clich\u00e9d poses to play. The actress &#8212; presently on something of an indie film jag, between &#8220;Big Sur,&#8221; this and Katie Aselton&#8217;s &#8220;Black Rock&#8221; &#8212; commits admirably to the material, but it&#8217;s neo-realism lite, nothing more.<\/p>\n<p>The film doesn&#8217;t have any of the sort of balanced heartbreak and uplift of something like the thematically similar &#8220;Hello I Must Be Going,&#8221; forget that movie&#8217;s shrewd observation. Coiro oversees a fairly polished technical package, but the film&#8217;s picturesque locations and gauzy sentimentality seem like an ill-suited match for the sort of inner turmoil that we&#8217;re supposed to believe is ailing Jane. &#8220;And While We Were Here&#8221; wants to plumb the diseased silences that plague romantic relationships, but by the time Jane and Leonard finally have it out (halfheartedly, at that), it&#8217;s been long evident that this putative snapshot of the aches found in interstices is just another case of the emperor&#8217;s new clothes, lacking in real characters or foundational perceptiveness.<\/p>\n<p><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> In addition to its theatrical engagements, &#8220;And While We Were Here&#8221; is also presently available across VOD
