Featured review
All of us, and certainly most filmmakers are trapped in small worlds. But it must be hell to be trapped in one that society recognizes as such. Breillat makes sometimes sensitive movies, all from within this tight shell, all with the same screams.
But this one is different, a whole new tone. This time she follows a French model for films that are essays: she makes a film about a film that is an essay on sex. It works because such things are talk about movies and the portrayal of life in movies.
It works because we don't have to relate to the poor girl in question, instead the filmmaker who is struggling with the representation.
Ted's Evaluation -- 3 of 3: Worth watching.
