An average movie

Basically, it is once again one of those really obscure French movies which almost no one has seen here on Listal. I had seriously no idea what to expect from this flick but since Isabelle Huppert was playing the lead character, I thought I might as well check it out. Eventually, it turned out to be an intriguing drama with some rather interesting characters but the makers keep you so long in the dark about their motivations that I kind of lost interest at some point. I mean, I did like the directing and there was something really nice about the relationship between Ann and Georges but it was really difficult to follow them and their thoughts. Every once in a while, the director would give the audience a very little bit of explanation so you could chew on it for a while but most of the movie was pretty obscure, I'm afraid. Eventually, most of the actions taken by Ann turned out to be pretty random, she was pretty much a cold, arrogant and selfish woman and it was rather difficult to really care for her and what she was going through. Anyway, to conclude, even though it was rather flawed, I still think it is worth a look, especially if you are interested in French movies.
