Did you know

• The film explicitly states at the beginning that Amira Casar's sex scenes were done with a body double. Indeed, Casar allegedly told her male co-star Rocco Siffredi that she would not be having sex with him for the purposes of the film. Siffredi himself had a porn double for the opening gay fellatio scene.

• Director Catherine Breillat wrote 'the man' especially for Rocco Siffredi.

• Rocco Siffredi was very defensive of Breillat, who wrote the male part with him in mind and has no qualms about showing his co-stars exactly what she wants. "I think Catherine has a lot of sexual fantasies and unconsciously she may want to sleep with me," he said. "When she was explaining one scene to me she took my sex in her hand and explained to Amira how she should play the scene. Once she said to me that, if she was younger, she might have played Amira's part herself."

Interesting as always ... but not one of Breillat's best.

This is the anatomy of a really bad movie.
