I've never liked a single one of her movies and yet I keep watching them.<br /><br />Didn't care for the movie, but the final 15 minutes - that ominous car drive - are superb.Glennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08194113062830373898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-78128236076446325532009-11-20T20:35:02.036-05:002009-11-20T20:35:02.036-05:00I would agree I found the ending a little confound...I would agree I found the ending a little confounding.

Without giving anything away to people who haven't seen it, the film is pretty heavy-handed at the end. I think it's excellent, but its over-the-top ending needs some specific analysis about the way it deals with women and sexuality. <br /><br />Also, thanks for taking on one of my favorite films of 2001!Christinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-7385207332141872892009-11-20T18:59:31.365-05:002009-11-20T18:59:31.365-05:00Flosh, I don't mean Anais is inspirational in ...Flosh, I don't mean Anais is inspirational in the sense Rocky and Spider-Man are.<br />But how often do you see a young woman so aware of her sexuality? Sure, her acts might not be approved by everyone (I'm not condoning underage sex) but it's thrilling to see a female character with such strong convictions, especially because for a large group of society children should be left out of sexual politics and education.Notas Sobre Creación Cultural e Imaginarios Socialeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01423835555933819338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-90989785678649435012009-11-20T16:26:29.431-05:002009-11-20T16:26:29.431-05:00This is definitely one of the best films of the th...This is definitely one of the best films of the the year 2001.

I really think that this is Breillat's masterpiece, or maybe Brief Crossing. Either way, she can do better than a lot of her films let on (romance).nicknoreply@blogger.com
