François Ozon directs Nadia Tereszkiewicz, Rebecca Marder and Isabelle Huppert in this French period farce where a struggling actress confesses to a murder she (probably) did not commit for the notoriety.

Very much a stagey French farce titivated by beautiful actresses in sumptuous clothes. There’s even a sole minute where bonus nudity intrudes and stomps over all the tasteful teatime visuals. Huppert makes a memorable appearance in the final third. As attractive as all this looks it really isn’t my thing.
