Featured review

She has lost a flipper....

Yannick Bellon has always been a director interested in burning subjects:homosexuality ("La Triche" ,ecology ("L'Affut) ,rape ("l' Amour Violé ",probably her finest achievement) "L'Amour Nu" deals with breast cancer but it is not to be taken at face value;it is actually a movie about femininity and its values ;a breast ablation is a tragedy for a still young woman when confronted with the picture she must give to the society :magazines,fashion shows,advertisements,movies,are everywhere to remind her .

The characters move in a privileged world:she's an UNESCO interpret and her love is an oceanographer:not exactly the girl and the boy next door and it gives the movie a harlequin romance side .The problems are often skimmed over and the story suffers accordingly.Nevertheless,it is partially saved by the actors' sensitivity :Marlene Jobert and a non -Professional ,Jean-Michel Folon,a famous drawer.
