a one who love film that appeal to intellectual sortie as well a those that simply tell story and this film should have be appeal . but a write and direct by catherine breillat who seem to be play out her own conundrum in film making experience and this tedious and talky film fails to arouse interest . the main character jeanne ( anne parillaud ) be the screen form of breillat and a director frustrate in her attempt to film a convincing sex scene with two difficult actor ( grégoire colin be the actor and roxane mesquida be the actress ) . the one comic bit be jeanne impose the use of a dildo strap onto the actor in order for her to drive the sex scene to fruition and but even this sight gag wear thin quickly and we be leave with a film within a film that feel more like a deleted scene featurette on a dvd than a solid french comedy with class . grady harp and august 05 .
