Summer of 85 (2020)

  • Ozon, Francois
  • 2020, France, Francois Ozon
  • 1 Comment

Breezy, fun but also dark, Ozonโ€™s non-linear gay romance doesnโ€™t really cut deep, but mostly works because it knows how to have a good time.

Swimming Pool (2003)

  • Ozon, Francois
  • 2003, France, Francois Ozon, UK
  • 3 Comments

Nothing is certain in Ozonโ€™s layered, erotic mystery about the commingling of reality and imagination with the creative writing process, featuring excellent performances by Charlotte Rampling and Ludivine Sagnier.

Sitcom (1998)

  • Ozon, Francois
  • 1998, France, Francois Ozon
  • Leave a comment

Banned in Singapore, Ozonโ€™s early satirical if uneven black comedy asks of us to reimagine the limits of morality as a middle-class family โ€˜rebalancesโ€™ itself through debauchery, sadomasochism and incest.

Frantz (2016)

  • Ozon, Francois
  • 2016, France, Francois Ozon, Germany

An elegiac if delicately-directed film by Ozon about lies, truths and the aftermath of war affecting the lives of those that continue to live.

By the Grace of God (2019)

  • Ozon, Francois
  • 2019, France, Francois Ozon
  • 2 Comments

A psychologically complex drama with an impressive narrative structure that pits several men against a centuries-old institution, in what is a riveting based-on-a-true-story take on paedophilia and the Church.

In the House (2012)

  • Ozon, Francois
  • 2012, France, Francois Ozon

Ozon is back in fine form with this fun and twisted take on voyeurism and hidden desires.
