Country: FR/GER
Technical: col 91m
Director: Ira Sachs
Cast: Franz Rogowski, Ben Whishaw, Adèle Exarchopoulos
Synopsis:
Queer film director sleeps with an extra, then goes home to tell his partner all about it. The experiment turns into an affair, however, which the partner reciprocates, replacing him with another him. Through a dangerous series of volte faces and flirtations, the former squanders any love he has inspired in either party.
Review:
Yawn-worthy wallow in sexual irresponsibility, with an insipid lead character whom we first see obessively-compulsively directing extras, then treating his friends in the same way. Hard to see what a schoolmistress would be doing working as an extra, anyway, never mind how a guy looking like our hero would gain access to her classroom in this day and age.
