    i went to see this yesterday because id heard it was a murder mystery, and saw it had gotten 3 stars in a few magazines. I didnt realise it was in subtitles and imagine my horror when about 10 minutes into the film, some of the characters started doing really cheesy singing and dancing, and i realised this was purposely part of the film. I spent the first half an hour hating the film and hating myself for making my friend go see it, and then.....it grew on me.

    once u get past certain aspects of the film that make u cringe at first, its quite entertaining. by the end of the film i really enjoyed it, and its full of suprise twists and turns, if ur into that kind of thing. one of those 'i shouldnt like it but io do' type thing, IMO. anyone else seen it yet?

    Saw it a while back, loved it, but it's by one of my favourite directors, so that was to be expected. The song and dance shenanigans are a piss-pull of some 50s film, whose name escapes me... verr funnay anyroad. Then again i'd watch Emmanuelle Beart and Fanny Ardent wallpapering a shed.

    i saw it several times.
    it's not my favourite film of françois ozon but the actresses are perfect in each character and the film has the ambiance of hercule poirot stories.
    of course the french songs might be a little disturbing for non french speaker, but they are so well linked to the women and the story.
