Gemma Bovery
In this wonderfully lurid movie, a woman, played by the voluptuous English actress Gemma Arterton, finds herself literally suffocated by three middle-aged men who are obsessed with her youthful beauty. One of these older men is played by the always-entertaining French actor Fabrice Luchini. The film’s final message is not that different from the final message in the last film by the director, Anne Fontaine, the also-lurid Adore: A woman can only be satisfied, enjoy life to the fullest, if she is regularly fucked by the naturally hard and splendidly unthinking cock of a young man. Older men just don’t cut it. They suffocate you.
