Matt Bailey | © 2004 notcoming.com cartoons | Submit comment Comments C. Goswami says: I find it odd that Matt has such a disdain for the methods of Von Trier and Breillat. cartoons Manipulating actors in order to coax a performance has been a regular technique used by directors for quite a while – it’s almost tradition. I also disagree that Breillat has no idea what her films are about, considering when you look at her complete body of work so far there are always similar themes present. To call Breillat a petty provocateur while praising Noe also seems odd to me. |

| But why did I enjoy the film the first bunuel time I watched it, untainted by knowledge of Breillat’s manipulative nature and unable to make comparisons with other, perhaps better explorations of similar themes, and why was I bored by it the second time around? Apart from the obvious answer that any shock value the film holds for the first-time viewer is spoiled on subsequent viewings, I would have to say that it is the fearlessness and utter strangeness of the performance of Anaïs Reboux, the titular fat girl, that bunuel makes this film worth watching more than once. To know that she was essentially a puppet controlled by her director during production makes her no less fascinating to watch and no less impressive in her interpretation of a very unlikable, unsympathetic, and plainly fucked-up little girl. Watching her mashing a banana split into her mouth with solipsistic glee, pretending to make jealous a pair of lovers represented by two swimming pool ladders, or simply lying in the surf like a sunning sea lion is to watch a performer totally at ease with her body and confident of her talent. |
