By GERALD PEARY  |  June 5, 2012
2.0 2.0 Stars



A dried-up French crime novelist (Jean-Paul Rouve) finds sudden inspiration for a new mystery in the true-life story of a TV weathergirl (Sophie Quinton). She based her rise to celebrity on an obsession with Marilyn Monroe, including her apparent suicide. Or, as in the case of MM, was it, perhaps, murder? There's nothing really wrong with this film written and directed by Gérald Hustache-Mathieu, except that the actors are not especially charismatic, and the narrative, though well-plotted, lacks any sustained excitement.

  •   REVIEW: DETROPIA  |  September 11, 2012
