She transforms herself into a more androgynous look.
Little White Lies was established in 2005 as a bi-monthly print magazine committed to championing great movies and the talented people who make them. Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 February 2019.

Then, the cast, brings another flavor as its blends and secures what is being experienced, but towards the third act, G!! Internet Service Terms Didn't have any intention of writing a review, but is anger that makes me spend a few minutes of my time for this rubbish i have just watched.The ending of the film is so ludicrous, that i have just appreciated the ending of Lost(and i didn't like it at all).When you want to make your audience open their mouths from surpise by the twist in the story that you have just gave them,well the twist must be credible and it has to relate with previous scenes of the film(the ending of the Sixth Sense is a perfect example).But here the twist in the story is so ridiculous that you actually wonder if the director believes that he's adressing 3 year-olds.Anyway when a film ends and you catch yourself asking which scenes were true and which were fantasies of the leading actress(Marine Vacht), well you come to realize that something went very wrong.The film also has a lot of sex scenes but after watching it i fully understand why,when the story is so weak the oldest trick in the book is to serve a lot of nudity to viewers.I will stop here,i hope that if you watched it, you didn't pay any of your money like me.

François Ozon does it again with this puckish and erotic satire on sexuality and family gender roles.

This establishes her central tensions: her sexuality and her vision of herself.

It doesn't take long for Chloe (whose job as a museum attendant seems to leave her a lot of free time) to track down the man she saw: Dr. Louis Delord, a psychoanalyst who happens to be Paul's estranged identical twin (also played by Renier).

It is pathetic. The film, which is based on a novel by Joyce Carol Oates, nods to Hitchcock in everything from the score to the use of a Vertigo-style spiral staircase, which tips us off-balance.

The background of American pop songs concludes with a particularly pointed lyric, sung by Elvis Presley. Chloé is reflected in mirrors, seen from all angles, her face doubled as she talks of contradictory emotions that add up to a broken person. So: Kudos, Ozon. When they decide to move in together, everything seems perfect, until a series of discoveries lead her to suspect that he may be living a double life. unnecessary scenes. Another five minutes in and I couldn't stop watching.

Thus the unreality of the psychoanalysts' party, which looks real apart from the subsequent apparition of Louis, is proved by the way Chloe 'casts' her gynaecologist as Wexler. Approx. Trying to be too clever and producing a ridiculous nonsense movie. Marine Vacth (Jeune et Jolie) plays Chloé, a young woman who falls in love with her psychoanalyst, Paul (Dardennes favourite Jérémie Renier). FACEBOOK Answers may be there (or not), but you have to look closely and maybe even watch it more than once to really get what the director wanted you to see.
Other actors also play duo roles. Production company: Mandarin Films And not a moment too soon, as Paul explains, for he has fallen in love with her and is ethically obligated to discontinue their therapy. Ozon is one of the most interesting French directors nowadays but also one having a bumpy career.

Spoiler Alert.

L’Amant Double is no doubt indebted to De Palma beyond its title.

Footnote: Fortunately, watching it on DVD we were able to fast forward past the two depraved and decadent scenes. There's quite some open eroticism in the French style but always matched to the story.

I wouldn't bother. Between the inaudible remarks of the main actress diaphanous insignificant and aesthetically disgusting (it makes a little think of a praying Mantis straying frigid lost), the scenario without tail nor head and a story that makes no sense, the title " perverse games of a tormented pseudo-bourgeoise"would be better suited to all this waste of time and money. The same actor plays Chloe's gynaecologist and the therapist Dr Wexler she claims to visit. Good movie in the general tradition of Shutter Island and Black Swan.

In one scene, we see a conversation between two people, but it seems as if they are talking to each other's mirror image: they are never shown talking directly to each other. The story – a disorienting deep dive into the subconscious and the sexual fantasies of a fragile young woman – wears its fetishes as boldly as any Hitchcockian corsetry.

This is were similarities stop. Like a mirror, there's many ways of appreciating this film. Presley himself admitted to a lifelong connection to his twin brother Aron, who died at birth. Both movies deal with issues of identity, truth and deception and how these can impact relationships between men and women. Erotic, powerful and disturbing. He really is more miss than hit these days. With her lies she builds a house of cards that threatens to fall at any moment, especially with Louis’ ruthless nature making her that much more anxious.
