   How does Breillat Feel About 'Last Summer'?

   Is Breillat a good movie?

   • It’s a messy, jolting movie; there aren’t many filmmakers who shock you like Breillat does and with such supremely natural ease.

   Does Breillat make every image count in 'last summer'?

   • Breillat isn’t a flashy visual stylist, but she makes every image count in “Last Summer.” There’s meaning in each smile and bit of skin, as when Breillat folds in shots of Théo and Pierre with bared torsos, the beauty of youth answered by the poignancy of age.

   Is 'last summer' a good movie?

   • “Last Summer” is complex, tricky, at times very uncomfortable and thoroughly engrossing. Part of what makes the movie enthralling, at least in its first squirmy half, is the spectacle of watching a character rush into a morally abject, altogether questionable and seemingly obvious disaster; it’s like watching a slow-moving car crash.
