The New Girlfriend

Une Nouvelle Amie
France | 2014 | François Ozon

The subversive new film by François Ozon (Swimming Pool, In the House) begins with the untimely death of a beautiful young wife and mother. At the funeral, her best friend vows to watch over the deceased’s infant daughter and widowed husband (Romain Duris). But she soon discovers that the husband leads a shocking secret life. From a Ruth Rendell story. “An air of Hitchcockian menace and free-floating sexual perversity is by now nothing new for François Ozon, but rarely has this French master analyzed the cracks in his characters’ bourgeois facades to such smooth and pleasurable effect.” -Variety.

Adults only! Cleveland premiere. DCP. 109 min.
