Sex Is Comedy £15.99
Catherine Breillat's new film was inspired by her own experiences shooting a sex scene in her controversial feature ' A Ma Soeur'. Anna Parillaud plays film director Jeanne, a demanding perfectionist who has a challenge on her hands creating convincing on-screen passion between her reluctant young lead actor and actress, who can barely conceal their dislike for each other. but the shooting of the film's most intimate scene brings the growing tensions between all three simmering to the surface. With disarming humour and brutal honesty. Breillat examines and attempts to understand what happens on a shoot when scenes involving physical intimacy arise.
