Uninteresting characters doing uninteresting things and telling uninteresting things. No problem for me because we all know that, thanks to the mise-en-scene, the musical score or beautiful landscapes, these first fruits may well become the pillars of a masterpiece. Just think of any Jean-Luc Godard movie. ( ... ) . No, it's a joke !. A DVD zone I Should Have Seen a Giallo instead.

See other comment below. The amazing Yves Cape doesn't seem to understand what Chéreau whants and his cinematography on the streets of Paris at night looks exactly like a Canon commercial with the blurry lights in the background. Also, the music is over the top and would have needed much more simplicity. A least, a great story has been told on screen.

Love is hard and trying to connect and live with someone is something really intense. The director and his actors brings that complexity to the screen. Set in metro, the streets and featuring "middle class" people, the suffering is everywhere and Chéreau is not affraid of showing real life in the style of Pialat. It's sad to see a good film that could have been a great one because of his lack of mise en scene.
