TIFF 2009 Day 3: François Ozon’s Le Refuge

Date:

September 14, 2009

I was surprised to learn that the focal point of Ozon’s drama is not addiction. Le Refuge is about solitude and finding comfort in a human touch. Simply constructed, without no large, sweeping emotional cues, a behind a big pair of shades Isabelle Carré effortlessly runs a gamut of emotions in minor keys. This is a rich character-study without whistles and bells, but pauses and meditation.
