Synopsis:

From IMDb: “After losing her virginity, Isabelle takes up a secret life as a call girl, meeting her clients for hotel-room trysts. Throughout, she remains curiously aloof, showing little interest in the encounters themselves or the money she makes.”

Poster: B / B

Review: These designs are largely identical. One is for English-speaking audiences, the other is for French-speaking ones. The only real difference is that the English-language one is slightly darker than its French-language identical. Both work adequately, though neither is particularly exciting, at least emotionally.

Trailer: B

Review: Francois Ozon is one of France’s finest filmmakers and this film looks to explore the lessening-taboo subject of sex. This is a film is about seduction and the benefits and costs of it.

Oscar Prospects:

Ozon has never been an Oscar regular and I don’t suspect this sexually charged film will have much hope with the Academy.
