Mon bel amour, ma déchirure

One of Catherine Wilkening's first films, which the French actress says she wouldn't make today. In fact it is an almost pornographic film, which caused a lot of scandal when it came out. There are penises in erection, digital and vaginal penetrations. "The love scenes are too raw. I find it more beautiful to let things be seen through subtlety. The suggestion is more interesting to play. Shooting explicit sex scenes is not hard in itself, it is not the acting that is difficult, but it poses a problem with oneself. I can't look at myself, I only remember that from the film, even though there are other things like the reflection on the relationship between theater and life, strong themes that attracted me to the script," Wilkening says.
