AMUSING CARICATURE



Paul Verhoeven made his name with some commercial long features in the '90s, but since then struggled to achieve a more „serious” CV in the filming industry on both coasts of the Atlantic.

„Elle” will return him to his European roots, telling a slow pace story about a deeply deviated Michelle (very good Isabelle Huppert) who begins her search for the man who raped her in her home. On that road, she will show a thousand different faces, each worse than the previous one. Script will go on to make some heavy caricature of her character, but a solid ammount of good old fashioned Euro pervert fun will accompany it to the very end.

„Elle” will make an average USA viewer feel uncomfortable, but will also reward a Euro-movie lover with some strong laughs and sense of expectancy.
