Product: La Pianiste (Original French Version)
Rating: 3.0
unconvincing
Despite a superb performance from Huppert the movie as a whole simply doesn't hold water. Her repression at the hands of her mother (another great performance) is very well done but I didn't buy the tenor of her relationship with the young "genius". And the ending is a rather strained copout. Nevertheless, very interesting movie with some excellent acting. Unfortunately, the interview with Isabelle throws absolutely no light on her character - she must be a brilliant instinctive actress.
