This story of an aspiring stage star standing trial for a top impresario\u2019s murder (and making the most of her moment in the tabloid flashbulbs) may be based on a nearly 90-year-old play, but for those versed more in Hollywood and Broadway than in French theater, Ozon\u2019s adaptation resembles a kind of diva fanfic: What if Roxie Hart went up against Norma Desmond, except in rollicking 1930s Paris?  <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    As it h<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ens, Georges Berr and Louis Verneuil\u2019s 1934 comedy \u201cMon crime\u201d has twice been adapted into Hollywood screwball romps: 1937\u2019s Carole Lombard vehicle \u201cTrue Confession\u201d and the lesser 1946 remake \u201cCross My Heart,\u201d starring Betty Hutton. Returning to the milieu of its source, \u201cThe Crime Is Mine\u201d nonetheless updates proceedings with a righteous dose of post-#MeToo gender politics: Whether its blonde-bombshell heroine is guilty of the crime or not is ultimately immaterial to a case that builds to an impassioned defense of a woman\u2019s right to defend herself from unwanted patriarchal advances, by any means necessary. That her lawyer is a gal pal, rather than a male love interest as in previous iterations, ups the ante, though the relative earnestness of the film\u2019s feminism stands in contrast to an otherwise wholly flippant exercise.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    \u201cSome women are born to love, others to listen,\u201d sighs cash-strapped junior attorney Pauline (Rebecca Marder), with one of many lingering Sapphic gazes at her platinum-bobbed roommate Madeleine (Nadia Tereszkiewicz). Madeleine is firmly in the former camp, though her covert romance with spineless tire-factory heir Andr\u00e9 (a winsome Edouard Sulpice) is of less importance to her than her budding acting career. We first encounter her storming out of the sprawling Art Deco mansion of star-making theater producer Montferrand (Jean-Christophe Bouvet), with whom she had an auspicious afternoon appointment; when he\u2019s found dead later that day, with a bullet in his skull, she\u2019s the prime suspect. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    When bumbling investigating judge Rabusset (a drolly pompous Fabrice Luchini) first interrogates her, Madeleine flatly denies any culpability. With Pauline\u2019s counsel, however, she swiftly settles on another narrative, one that rests on Montferrand\u2019s reputation for being more than a little handsy with his ingenues: She killed him in the face of an attempted rape. \u201cBit melodramatic,\u201d mutters Rabusset after their explanation \u2014 dramatized in glamorously silvery black-and-white \u2014 as if the film\u2019s entire construction hasn\u2019t been gleefully heightened from the jump. His misgivings, however, aren\u2019t shared by the jury, the public or the tabloid press, as Madeleine\u2019s teary self-defense story, cannily coached by Pauline, captures the popular imagination and makes her an overnight celebrity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Is it true? Who cares? Nobody, it seems, except faded silent-movie siren Odette Chaumette (Isabelle Huppert), who strides in past the one-hour mark with conflicting evidence and a welcome surge of vampish venom, just as Ozon\u2019s energy is beginning to flag. Comeback-seeking Odette is after Madeleine\u2019s spotlight, but Huppert herself hardly has to wrest it from the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>, fluttery Tereszkiewicz: The camera all but genuflects the second the veteran makes her imperious entrance, crowned in feathers and a frizzy copper coiffure, and vocally asserting her right to its continued attention. Huppert has little to do but spit out pithy lines with her signature disdain, and cast the odd lascivious glance at a duly mesmerized Pauline \u2014 but it hardly takes a lot to stroll off with a film this light.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    With its distinguished scenery-chewer finally present, then, it\u2019s a pity that \u201cThe Crime Is Mine\u201d oddly peters out in its final third \u2014 the script averting seemingly pre-ordained clashes in the name of female solidarity, but also pulling back from its queerest and most subversive possibilities. A witty script sidebar details how Madeleine\u2019s case inspires other women to consider bumping off the men in their lives to improve their standing and peace of mind, though it never escalates to dizzier farcical heights, even as it gifts us the film\u2019s best line: Asked by Andr\u00e9 why he was spared the bullet, Madeleine shrugs, \u201cI can\u2019t kill everyone.\u201d There are passing pleasures, too, to be had in Manu Dacosse\u2019s buttery lensing and the silky gloss of the production and costume design alike. Yet \u201cThe Crime Is Mine\u201d never aspires to the exacting postmodern formal rigor of \u201c8 Women\u201d: An out-and-out <em>divertissement<\/em>, Ozon\u2019s latest is at pains only to avoid trying too hard. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
