Take a and extend it just that little extra bit further, and your question is answered.
""Money doesn't come into it. It never has. I do what I do because it's all that I am." - Morrissey

"Lacan stressed more and more in his work the power and organizing principle of the symbolic, understood as the networks, social, cultural, and linguistic, into which a child is born. These precede the birth of a child, which is why Lacan can say that language is there from before the actual moment of birth. It is there in the social structures which are at play in the family and, of course, in the ideals, goals, and histories of the parents. This world of language can hardly be grasped by the newborn and yet it will act on the whole of the child's existence."

I was with this film at the beginning. It was a wonderful relationship between the writer and the daughter, how the writer was repulsed, yet fascinated by the young girl's lifestyle. And as they became friends, it turned into a nice relationship to watch. But then, around the last half hour, the characters started to do things I didn't believe they would do, and that's when my suspicions about what the twist ending was was confirmed. It turned into a mystery/thriller and really felt out of place with the rest of the film.

As for the nudity, it seemed very gratuitous and was better served when it made Sarah uncomfortable and served the story in that way.

I didnt like the ending... I didnt understand it at first... now I do... and I dont like it... I think the movie was great as it was without that twist

Alexandro

I thought the movie was really cool...

I enjoyed all the way through and then, with the twist ending it just made me smile...it happens a lot in life that you are living a certain situation and you start to imagine really twisted circumstances that could take place and sometimes that becomes short stories or something...I like that...in the end, the movie is about writing...and it's fun...and ludivine is naked...
