CGiii Comment
Pointless, dreary...a terrible adaptation of a terrible book.
Yes, it is beautifully filmed...but, for what end?
Bertolucci - a theory...maybe, expectations may have ran just a little too high for your talent?
His catalogue is an impressive big-budget, list of big names in more misses than hits.
An important question that every director should be forced to consider: what is the justification of making a particular film?
There is no obvious justification for this...or is there?

The(ir) Blurb...
Paris, spring 1968. While most students take the lead in the May 'revolution', a French poet's twin son Theo and daughter Isabelle enjoy the good life in his grand Paris home. As film buffs they meet and 'adopt' modest, conservatively educated Californian student Matthew. With their parents away for a month, they drag him into an orgy of indulgence of all senses, losing all of his and the last of their innocence. A sexual threesome shakes their rapport, yet only the outside reality will break it up.
