I do like Ozon and many of his movies prove his intelligence and sensibility. BUT this movie misses the point completely on character development, feelings and dynamics on so many levels. E.g. Virginia as a trans woman is not believable, Claire shows no empathy for her husband, the whole thing about being gay/transgender/cross dresser/drag queen is all mixed up and confused. The chances to educate the crowds os a delicate issue and to elevate a character through a story about love are completely missed in this movie.
