Synopsis
Sex Is Comedy (2002) is a French drama-comedy from director Catherine Breillat — watch it online on iFILM. Director Jeanne (Anne Parillaud) is trying to shoot a single explicit scene between two young actors who can barely stand each other on set.
The weather refuses to cooperate. The prosthetic prop keeps falling apart. The actor (Grégoire Colin) is stiff and shut down; the actress (Roxane Mesquida) is lost and reluctant. Jeanne cajoles, pressures, and maneuvers — determined to get those two minutes of footage to read as real intimacy by any means necessary. Breillat made this immediately after Fat Girl, and it works as a sardonic self-examination: a film about what directing intimacy actually requires, and what the director extracts from the actors to get there.
Uncomfortable in exactly the right way — funny because it's precise, and precise because Breillat knows the situation from the inside. Stream Sex Is Comedy (2002) online on iFILM.
