Love (2015)

An American living in Paris enters a highly sexually and emotionally charged relationship with a young, unstable woman.

Candid, but ultimately not successful attempt to recreate the passion and intimacy of an amour fou, pornographic scenes included; while these moments are audacious, they also appear oddly incongruent with the intensity of the performances.

The Neon Demon (2016)

 

 

When an aspiring model moves to Los Angeles, her youth and vitality are devoured by a group of beauty-obsessed women who will take any means necessary to get what she has.

 

Visually gorgeous and mesmerizing tale that takes its view of the beauty industry to a morbid and slightly ironic extreme.
