8/10
Lives Up to its Name...

Camiile Bliss, is residing in a jail, her activities and actions ended up beyond the pale, but a Sociologist, wants to draft his next thesis, finding out what makes her tick, and where society has failed. So she spins him several yarns for him to knit, he investigates and thinks he can unpick, there's miscarriage in her sentence, doesn't figure out her pretence, that the tale has some flaws, and holes in it.

Bernadette Lafont steals this by a very long country mile, an outstanding performance from a very talented lady, in many ways, as she narrates the events and escapades that landed her in prison. Not the most original piece of filmmaking by today's standards but the production, dialogue and direction compliments the leading lady's performance perfectly.
