find out more information A friend of mine who saw "Fat Girl" before I did astutely noted that it's not the sort of film one "enjoys" watching. You might admire many public forum things about it, and it can properly be called a very good movie, but it's not one you'll want to public forum hurry out and see again.I'm not sure I admire it as much as my friend did, nor as much as writer/director Catherine Breillat wants me to. She has a lot of interesting things to say about sexuality, and about sexual fantasies among adolescents, but I can't help feeling like much of the shock in "Fat Girl" is there for its own sake, and not because the story required it. You can practically taste Breillat's self-satisfaction in some places, as if she just KNEW she was creating a masterpiece. The titular fat girl is Anais (Anais Reboux), a bored and sad 12-year-old whose family is vacationing at a French seaside resort. Her 15-year-old sexpot sister Elena (Roxanne Mesquida) has some Clinton-esque definitions of what does and doesn't constitute sex, and as a result considers herself still a virgin.
