Crossed Tracks (French: Roman de gare) is a 2007 French film directed by Claude Lelouch (who appears in credits as Hervé Picard). The film follows a novelist, her ghost writer, and a wayward young woman as a chance encounter at a rest stop interrupts the delicate balance of their lives. French actor Dominique Pinon received wide praise for his rare turn as the film's leading man. The title is French slang for "trashy novel one reads in a train or train station" similar to the English phrase "airport novel".

Ilva is a woman who falls in love too quickly. Unaware and unconcerned about how her passion may be perceived, she finds herself having to live with the consequences of her actions. First, in the middle of the German occupation in Paris, she falls for a Nazi, which indirectly leads to the death of her father. For many, her relationship was interpreted as her collaboration with the Nazis. Her next love story, however, bring additional tragedy. During the liberation of France in '44, when she is violently summoned to answer for her relationship with the German, she is saved by two Americans GIs, one white and one black. She falls in love with both these men, at the same time. Her inability to choose between them, creates conflict, unhappiness and murder.

The film follows four families, with different nationalities (French, German, Russian and American) but with the same passion for music, from the 1930s to the 1980s. The various story lines cross each other time and again in different places and times, with their own theme scores that evolve as time passes.

Casanova a accepté la proposition du duc de Waldstein : il est bibliothécaire du château de Dux, en Bohême. En fin de vie, il s’est mis à y écrire ses Mémoires. C’est là qu’il reçoit la visite d’Elisa von der Recke, qui s’intéresse de près à son manuscrit. Casanova ne reconnaît pas dans les traits de cette femme pleine de charme une jeune fille qu’il avait séduite jadis et qui avait voulu mourir pour lui. Pour le fameux libertin, l’arrivée d’Elisa est à la fois stimulante, l’occasion de se lancer un nouveau défi (celui de la conquérir), et menaçante (il s’interroge sur la motivation de la voyageuse).
