... following the early rave reviews of this film, and the fact that Adele is always interesting.

However, I found a couple of the characters very thin (the husband in particular) and the flashbacks became a bit much for me.

At one level, as with Titane, this is quite an interesting set-up of a highly dysfunctional family, but I just couldn't suspend disbelief enough for some of the action and, in particular, the outcome (as far as I could make it out).

Meanwhile, on the basis of this, I'm sure however that Sally Drame will go on to do some very interesting work - she's a compelling presence here.

Worth a look.

Without assistance, teaching, learning you've acquired, certain skills that take you back to times expired, with your jars of concoction, your magic causes a motion, that can take you back to places you desire. What you find, seems to defy, cause and effect, and the paradox is a mystery and detracts, as your appearance would affect, all the outcomes you'd expect, chicken, egg, just takes you to a disconnect. So you scratch your head, your chin and raise your brows, as you determine all the why's and where's and how's, all the acting is quite fine, Adele is always so divine, but there are better ways to engage and arouse.

This incredible french drama delves deep into a genre breaking experience in very interesting ways.

The actors and the script is incredible, and so is the cinematography, cutting and. It is simply a very beautifully and uniquely put together piece.

Overall, an incredible and acclaimed film that is very much recommended for any lover of film.

The effects, and the overall idea and execution works very fluidly. The end result is a very unique piece that stays with you for a long time.

Overall, yet another testament to the greatness of french cinema, and how you can bend genres and conventions in very appreciated and interesting ways.
