LAST SUMMER
LAST SUMMER
Dir. by Catherine Breillat | 2023 | France |104 Mins | CTC
Official Selection at:
Melbourne International Film Festival, August 2023
The Alliance Française French Film Festival 2024
Anne, a brilliant lawyer, lives in perfect harmony with her husband Pierre and their six and
eight‐year-old daughters, in a house on the heights of Paris.
One day, Theo, 17, Pierre’s son from a previous marriage, moves in with them. Anne is troubled by Theo and gradually engages in a passionate relationship with him, putting her career and family life in danger.
In Aus and NZ cinemas late 2023. Watch this space for dates.
_______________________________________________________________________________
By Breillat’s standards, this is an unprecedentedly sleek commercial play, alluring and grabby — yet with an innate, considered nastiness, an unspoken intellectualisation of our least explicable instincts, that never feels compromised.
-Film Of The Week-
… While the film never shocks it almost always compels, and Breillat crafts some images that keep tingling in the mind long after they’ve faded from sight.
