The Other One
As an exploration of the shiny surfaces and sleek, mall-like enclosures of the new Paris, Pierre Trividic and Patrick Mario Bernard’s sophomore outing endlessly fascinates. (…)
An increasingly off-balance social worker (vet character actress Dominique Blanc), who can deal with other people’s problems but not her own, moves through a landscape of neon-lit, mall-nested cafes, glass-enclosed high-rise office buildings, hermetically sealed buses and subways cars, and apartments regulated by an electronic ”cyberbox.” Blanc, looking particularly Bette Davis-like, manages to convey her character’s fundamental sanity as well as her increasing derailment.
