The post Jean-Daniel Simon – Ils AKA Them (1970) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

Charlotte is better known by its original French title, La Jeune Fille Assassinee. The film combines Roger Vadim’s overriding twin fascinations: eroticism and death. Charlotte (Sirpa Lane) dreams of dying violently while in the throes of an orgasm. This curious desire is the principal motivation for her entering into a life of crime. In addition to directing Charlotte, Vadim also produced, scripted, and played a major on-screen role. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

The post Roger Vadim – La jeune fille assassinée AKA The Assassinated Young Girl (1974) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

Two cartoonists meet a playboy who lives out the fantasies created in their cartoons. He hires them to create a new comic strip. As they work on the new strip, the playboy begins to live it out. Unfortunately, the new strip deals with murder.

Review :
‘When I was a little boy, I wanted to be Tintin, and to live his life of adventures. Bob, in “Jeu De Massacre”, might have registered the same desire, but his dreams have never faded away and now nearing thirty, when he meets two cartoonists (the man writes the scripts, the wife draws), he tells them he’s been through all the stories they have invented: as soon as he appears on the screen, we feel how irrational Bob is. Michel Duchaussoy […] gives a tormented feverish performance; when he tells his imaginary adventures, he uses the “Passe Simple”, a tense you would not use in a conversation: it creates a gap between the narrator and what he is telling. Bob has an over possessive wealthy mother with whom he lives in Switzerland in a desirable mansion by the Leman Lake. He invites the two artists who have understood that they can make money out of this mythomania. Next step will be writing a brand new comic strip which introduces a new hero, some kind of “Super Bob”. It won’t be long before the rich kid wants to become this superman. Little by little, the writer’s wife, who draws the strip (the drawings are terribly dated, Barbarella style, but it inspires Bob’s vital extremism) begins to feel like becoming herself the heroine of the story and she creates Helen, Bob’s partner in crime. But soon, being on the paper won’t be enough…’

Erotic Suspense After Mistaken Identity

In Patrice Leconte’s sardonic psychological thriller, ”Intimate Strangers,” Sandrine Bonnaire portrays a Gallic answer to one of Alfred Hitchcock’s sleek blond women of mystery. Imagine the Grace Kelly of ”Rear Window” or the Kim Novak of ”Vertigo” sprawled seductively on an analyst’s couch, smoking cigarettes and confiding her sexual frustration to a repressed, wide-eyed shrink who is obsessed with her.

”Intimate Strangers,” directed by Mr. Leconte from a screenplay by Jérôme Tonnerre, establishes its mood of playful erotic suspense in the first 10 minutes and sustains its cat-and-mouse game between therapist and patient through variations that are by turns amusing, titillating and mildly scary.

The film’s running joke is its revelation at the outset that the shrink, William Faber (Fabrice Luchini), is not really a therapist but a repressed, lonely tax accountant whose good friend and recent romantic partner, Jeanne (Anne Brochet), has left him for a gym rat (Laurent Gamelon). Ms. Bonnaire’s troubled character, Anna, has accidentally strayed into the wrong office, on the same dark floor where the psychoanalyst she intended to consult, Dr. Monnier (Michel Duchaussoy), practices a few doors away.

Before William has a chance to correct Anna’s mistake, she begins pouring out the story of her dysfunctional marriage, and he finds himself too intrigued to come clean. As he points out later, a tax accountant’s relationship to a client parallels a psychotherapist’s. Both professions involve knowing personal secrets and making decisions about what to reveal and what to hide.

”Intimate Strangers” takes place less in the real world than in the realm of voyeuristic fantasy — in other words, in the realm of film itself, which allows us to ogle beautiful people under the cover of darkness. And Ms. Bonnaire is something to ogle. The film, which opens today in New York, presents longing as a kind of romantic science fiction in which the what-if? is risk free, and it is more delicious to imagine a transcendent passion than to engage in the messy, potentially disappointing mechanics of actual consummation.

Another variation on the same idea drives the recent and wonderful Italian film ”Facing Windows,” in which attractive neighbors who have surreptitiously observed and desired each other finally connect and face reality. Both films involve a lot of staring out of windows and gazing at reflections.

”Intimate Strangers” is also a riff on the Henry James novella ”The Beast in the Jungle,” whose protagonist spends his life frozen in the expectation of a remarkable destiny that never materializes. Midway in Anna’s therapy, William, whose inability to respond to her subtle romantic signals recalls the paralysis of James’s protagonist, lends her the novella. On returning it, she complains about its sad ending.

A dumpy, slightly effeminate middle-aged man with scared saucer eyes, Mr. Luchini’s William (who secretly dances around his apartment to Wilson Pickett’s ”In the Midnight Hour”) is another of the movie’s jokes. It’s difficult to explain Anna’s discreet romantic interest in him except as a comic illustration of the notion that opposites attract.

”Intimate Strangers” has great fun puncturing the mystique of psychoanalysis. When William calls on Dr. Monnier to seek Anna’s telephone number, the doctor withholds it but charges William for a session. Monnier, who has more than a passing resemblance to Freud, is as greedy as he is grandiose. He offers William free advice over lunch, then makes him pick up the tab. While they dine, he offers his own pompous (nonsensical) variation on Freud’s question ”What do women want?” (”Once ajar, the door to female mystery is hard to shut again”) and plants the notion in William’s head that Anna’s abusive husband may be imaginary. William, with his shyness and a sense of propriety that camouflage a burning curiosity, proves a much better therapist than his professionally accredited neighbor.

Other characters who dart in and out of the movie include Williams’s nosy, disapproving secretary, Mrs. Mulon (Hélène Surgère); Anna’s wildly jealous husband, Marc (Gilbert Melki), who is aroused by the fantasy of his wife sleeping with William; and Chatel (Urbain Cancelier), a client of Monnier’s whose elevator phobia Anna endeavors to cure after encountering him on the way to a session.

In the spirit of the best Hitchcock, ”Intimate Strangers” is seriously light. Or is it lightly serious?
