While this is certainly no worse than average psychodrama on women in Belle époque/Fin d'cicle France confined in mental institutions, I am concerned that many of the reviewers are under the impression this was some kind of gender based abuse. The data and peer reviewed work clearly show that in this period France, Great Britain and the US, between two to four times as many men were confined in asylums and subject to horrendous and barbaric treatments.
I would agree with many of the critics that the acting was well above average, but the writing and directing problematic in pacing, overheavy melodrama. There are also problems with the storylines of the characters which seem to meander.
5/10.
