François Ozon returns with L’amant double, a sleek but gleefully irreverent erotic thriller that sees the prolific French auteur ramping up the sexual tension while keeping his tongue firmly in his cheek.
Ozon’s erotic thriller, about a woman Chloé (Marion Vacth) who falls in love with Paul, her psychoanalyst (Jérémie Renier) but discovers there’s more to him than meets the eye, sees the director back to his old tricks after the restrained Second World War saga Frantz.
His latest foray has style, sex appeal and a delicious streak of craziness. When Chloé and Paul move into their new apartment she discovers a box containing Paul’s past, including a passport bearing a different surname. A web of secrets are about to be unleashed … Loosely based on the Joyce Carol Oates novel Lives of the Twins (written under the pseudonym Rosamond Smith) and with distinct shades of Brian de Palma and Hitchcock on the side. Watch out for Jacqueline Bisset in a neat cameo part.
