Justine' Film

L'Histoire de Justine

Director Jeanne Crépeau / 1990 / Canada

The bitter-sweet pangs of unrequited love are deftly and delicately suggested in French Canadian's Jeanne Crepéau's film. A refreshing wry tale of a modern girl with a timeless problem. Our heroine sets out on a quest to "cure" herself of passions felt for Justine, a chum, who just wants a girlfriendship without the fire of desire. Original and funny, but at the same time moving and sincere.(PK)
