Two or Three Things

I agree with Seannie in that the "her" in the film seems to be just as much (if not more) about France as it is about Juliette. Apparently in France at this time there was a trend of middle class French women becoming prostitutes in order to supplement the family income, which I think is interesting because Juliette's story is not necessarily unique. "Two or Three Things" is as much a social piece of film as it is a philisophical one.

That being said, I really enjoyed the way the characters interacted with the audience directly through the camera. It made every thing seem so personal, but at the same time it kept reminding you that you were watching a film. There didn't seem to be a replication of reality here. I also enjoyed the narrator in the film; he kept focus during confusing aspects of the film and provided structure.
