Or is she? Well no pun intended - but charges apparently are ... more or less. And the movie does begin with a bang - the question is, what F. Ozon is planning or trying to tell us ... maybe trying to irriate us ... we know that the beginning is important ... will we ever find out how much though? Well you have to watch the movie to know ... maybe.
That all said, the movie has a special kind of humor. You have to dig it - otherwise I can see you being annoyed by it. Yes there is a bit of overacting, yes there are things that would never happen in reality (hopefully) - also this is quite fixed on female characters. If you think it is unfair ... well try to understand there is a different viewpoint ... and maybe empathize ... so either be entertained by the movie or even read a message into it. At the beginning of the end credits there is also a "where/what are they now" ... with newspaper clippings/articles.
