In French. 95 minute running time. This won the Palm d’Or, but there ain’t that many French-language movies every year so there are some real clinkers that have won the title… this was a depressing tale about a teenage girl who has an alkie mother and no father … they live in a trailer park … the girl suffers from terrible menstrual cramps and is always running from one place to the next … she’s desperate to find a job though it doesn’t really ring true given the European welfare state … she’s pretty, she has good bones as does her alkie mom (again this doesn’t really ring true) … friendship and betrayal touched on. I wasn’t thrilled with this. SPOILERS: I did appreciate the humor of the botched suicide attempt.
