classic french cinema, full of psychoanalysis. fast moving witty and indiscreetly correct dialogue for those needing subtitles. what comes as surprise is the revelation, or at least the unmentioned-until-absolutely-necessary of who the madame is. this gave a entirely different, while parallel, level of information about madame and her extended family. we see only what we are allowed to see, but only once the viewer had been prepared. the essence of what is communicated can have other sources, other motives. as expected sex is in full Freudian motion and this particular French relationship is more passionate drama and manipulation than romance. poor guy was out of his league. viewed as unstated confirmation it will be liked in Hollywood New York, but, what with the state of things, it worries me. if possible, see the most excellent 2014 Turkish film Kis Uykusu, to understand how compassion is missing in the French film.
it is definitely worth seeing both as entertainment and education. could even change your world view. 7 of 10
