Summary: |
Crafting a deliriously cinematic web of suspense, shock, eroticism, and power dynamics, writer/director François Ozon returns to master the thriller genre with DOUBLE LOVER. Chloé, who works as a guard at a museum in Paris, seeks to shore up her resiliency and enters psychoanalysis. Following the end of the treatment with psychiatrist Paul Meyer, both realize that they have fallen in love. A new chapter begins for Chloé when she and Paul move in together...yet Chloé soon comes to believe that Paul is keeping a secret. She impulsively visits another psychiatrist, Louis Delord. Spiraling emotional and sexual stakes will push all three of them to extremes, forcing Chloé to take action in order to solve a mystery and save herself. Nominated for a Palme d'Or at the **Cannes Film Festival**. *"What gives the film its surprising coherence is not only the fluidity of Ozon's technique but also his mastery of tone, the ease with which he applies serious craft to a resolutely un-serious endeavor." - Justin Chang, **The Los Angeles Times*** |
