Une Nouvelle Amie
好喜歡好喜歡這部電影。
死亡、變裝癖、偷情、同性戀…剝掉層層重鹹腥羶的表相,最後剩下的,是人與人之間無盡的包容與接納,在一次美麗的情慾流動中,重新認識自己一次。
看完心情愉快又溫暖。

「小時候我媽說男生是從包心菜生出來的,女生是從花朵生出來的。我看我大概是從花椰菜生出來的吧。」
*
「妳為什麼跟妳老公說我是同性戀?!」
「我被逼急了脫口而出了!」
「哎,這太荒謬了......」
「這年頭!同性戀還比變裝癖合理一點!」
*
「走啊,進去看呀。」
「算了,今天先不要。我還沒準備好。」
「為麼?」
「因為我腿毛還沒刮乾淨。」

「Claire的先生,模範好男人。他大概從頭到尾都沒搞懂這兩個『女人』之間發生了什麼事。」

Interview with Anaïs Demoustier
「At first she seems shy, ensconced in her normality, but actually she’s a very strong person with a keen appetite for life. Claire’s femininity is just under the surface, ready to bloom. She doesn’t have many opportunities to express it with her husband, but Virginia helps her unleash her sensuality. She plays the game with her, reveling in their complicity and the excitement and freedom associated with the crossdressing. In fact, quite quickly, Claire starts running the show. David sort of becomes her doll. She takes power over him.」
「Claire loved and admired her best friend enormously, but she was living in her shadow. In losing her, she breaks free of the reflected image in which she was living despite herself, and moves forward toward something real and sincere. She’s excited by the danger, and the ruses she and David have to come up with. 」
「We had to downplay her femininity to start, then gradually liberate it and feel Claire becoming more and more comfortable in her female body. The fun she’s having with Virginia shines through. It helps her find her place, accept her femininity. 」
