Not a Comedy

This is quite an interesting film and, unlike some other reviewers here, I really enjoyed the central performance. Disturbingly like Jennifer Lawrence at times, Efira handles the variety of tones and context very well, I think - despite the film deliberately taking her all over the place emotionally. I used to think that "Blue is the Warmest Colour" was the most snot-laden film I had ever seen, courtesy of Adele's copious crying, and she is well-chosen to deliver similar over-the-top distress here. In contrast, I didn't much like the director character, and for me the men were a bit too interchangeable.

Worth a look though.
