The Beautiful Person
Third film in a loose trilogy about Parisian youth that includes LOVE SONGS and DANS PARIS, directed by phenom Christophe Honoré. Sixteen-year-old Junie changes high school mid-year. All the boys want to date Junie, and she chooses the quietest among them, Otto Cleves. But soon after, she encounters the great love of her life, Nemours, her Italian teacher, but the passion that burns between them is doomed. "Intellectual, playful and thrillingly alive”-Dermody, Paper. "A pleasingly tart vision of lust, teenage or otherwise, never fails to be enraptured by the comeliness of its cast—and no one is filmed more lovingly than Louis Garrel”-Anderson, ART FORUM. “The air, as per usual with Honoré, is one of romantic fatalism, but here it feels earned rather than belabored”- Foundas, LA WEEKLY.
