'The Girl Cut in Two' stylish and well-observed

Director: Claud Chabrol

Cast: Ludwine Sagnier, Benoit Maginel, Francois Berleand

A weather-girl faces the dilemma of who to fall in love with in this charming romance with an edge.

Will it be the older wealthy author (Berleand) – whom she really loves – or the rich, shallow younger one (Maginel)?

She picks the latter which turns out to be a disaster since he’s jealous of her other suitor.

It’s a French film so there’s lots of style and wit and keen observation.

Star Rating: 3/5
