CGiii Comment

Ooops.

The French farce rears its ugly head - yet again...why?

Ozon changes direction so often...with varying degrees of success...he simply is one of the most inconsistent directors working today.

This retro farce is as entertaining as watching mud dry.

As for subtlety - it has none nor any conceivable intelligence.
