Audience Member As with most films by Catherine Breillat, you either love it or hate it; slow-moving and rather pointless. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member To me, Catherine Breillat is never a good story teller. And I believe she just doesn't care much either, except for her femininity agenda delivery. This piece, which was made almost 24 years ago, is just another example. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
