La femme du Vème (2011)
A college lecturer flees to Paris after a scandal costs him his job, and in the City of Light he meets a widow who might be involved in a series of murders.
Messy psychological thriller with an otherwise good cast wobbles between reality and fanatsy, but hardly uses the imbalance effectively.
Maltin***: "...this moody, dreamlike psychological thriller (which may or may not entirely in the protagonist's head) is often confusing and indecipherable but is very well acted and beautifully made."
First Lines: Allan Bloom - The Closing of the American Mind

First Lines: Peter Singer - Animal Liberation
"Animal Liberation" may sound more like a parody of other liberation movements than a serious objective.
