CGiii Comment

Juliette Binoche and Kristen Stewart do well with a script that is lacking in all departments.

Juliette Binoche and Kristen Stewart are the only reasons to watch this anti-climactic ode to withering fame and fortune.

A film that goes nowhere fast...and, when it finally reaches its destination...nothing.

All that work, developing a relationship between Binoche and Stewart...and, nothing.

The feeling of being left dangling on a string as never been more apt.

Assayas displays an impudent nerve.

The(ir) Blurb...

At the peak of her international career, Maria Enders is asked to perform in a revival of the play that made her famous twenty years ago. But back then she played the role of Sigrid, an alluring young girl who disarms and eventually drives her boss Helena to suicide. Now she is being asked to step into the other role, that of the older Helena. She departs with her assistant to rehearse in Sils Maria; a remote region of the Alps. A young Hollywood starlet with a penchant for scandal is to take on the role of Sigrid, and Maria finds herself on the other side of the mirror, face to face with an ambiguously charming woman who is, in essence, an unsettling reflection of herself.
