I'm not speaking of the chemistry between Sarah and Julie, no, but those magnificent nubile mamms that Ludivine so willingly sported throughout the movie.Well crafted, well acted, and glacially paced--I enjoyed the experience but was left quite puzzled at the end. Who was the real Julie? Did she ever exist in France? The ending bordered on a "cheap turn" rather than "well planned".

Follow Ups:
has her good points---they're also quite visible in "Water Falls on Hot Rocks" or something similar...not as good, but I believe also by the director, Ozon.
I just saw it again for the second time and enjoyed it more. The subtlety of the film became more obvious and the pace, because I was looking for internal consistencies, clues, and details, seemed more even. I also appreciated the understated performance of Charlotte quite a bit more.

Maybe all Brit women look alike at a certain point? Mirren's cigarettes and cocktails have taken their toll--but I still see a slight resemblence.

Camilla, no?
(Charlotte has those strange almond-shaped eyes with no apparent eyelashes; she is also bony and modestly breasted; Mirren has a VERY healthy set of lungs. I recommend her in "Comfort of Strangers," btw...)

What about the Thief's wife? Mmmm.
She is more than ample. Comfort of Strangers is one of my favorite mediocre movies. Venice being the star, upstaging everything.

The Sarah character was a writer, correct?The 'real' Julie appears at the end. Everything else is up to you.
Charles Dance actually returned one of Sarah's calls and asked about the book during the conversation: "it's not about my daughter by anychance?" I supposed that was giving too much away.
