Sex Is Comedy is a 2002 comedy-drama film written and directed by Catherine Breillat . [1] It revolves around a director ( Anne Parillaud ) and her troubles filming an intimate sex scene between two actors who cannot tolerate each other.
Based on Breillat's experiences directing her 2001 film Fat Girl , the climax of the film features a recreation of a scene from that film, shot from the point of view of the crew, with Roxane Mesquida essentially reprising her role from the first film. [ citation needed ]
On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes , the film holds an approval rating of 68% based on reviews from 47 critics, with an average rating of 6.3/10. [2] On Metacritic , the film has a weighted average score of 63 out of 100, based on 24 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews". [3]
Nev Pierce of BBC praised the direction by Catherine Breillat, writing "[She] does effectively capture the 'hurry up and wait' atmosphere of a film set, and draws excellent performances from all involved". [4]
Ed Gonzalez of Slant Magazine called the film an "ego trip", [5] while Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times said that he is not sure "what it's really about, or how to get there". [6]
According to John Anderson of the Chicago Tribune "It may be impossible ever to watch a sex scene again after seeing Catherine Breillat's Sex Is Comedy . And that may precisely be the point". [7]
In a review for The A.V. Club , Scott Tobias wrote, " Sex Is Comedy triumphs mostly in laying out the specific mechanics of a love scene", [8] while Ruthe Stein of San Francisco Chronicle criticized the film for being "[a]nnoying, soporific and, despite its title, singularly humorless". [9]

I actually enjoyed this movie. I did not find it boring or dull. I think viewers who approach this expecting another typical Breillat film (provocative, shocking) will indeed find it tedious. It is different from her other films. It doesn't have their sexual/moral agenda. Neither is it a comedy. It is almost documentary-like. I had the impression that I was watching a "Behind The Scenes" featurette that could have been appended to any one of her other films. The whole movie revolves around a director (obviously Breillat herself) who has trouble trying to set up a crucial sex scene in her movie because her two stars detest each other. For much of the movie, we watch her plead, cajole and threaten, her actors into giving her the performance she wants. This is more a movie about the mechanics of making a film, specifically of shooting a sex scene and the difficult relationship between director and actor. There isn't much nudity or actual sex in this film (well, at least compared to her other movies), although we do get to see Roxane Mesquida (the pretty sister in Fat Girl) full frontal and Gregoire Colin complete with rampant prosthetic. I can understand why it is derided, especially by fans of Breillat, but you can't expect a director to always provoke or shock. How boring would that be. Here we see her reflecting on the craft of film-making. If you have some interest in film-making or at least how Breillat herself shoots her films, this would be enlightening. MGM's transfer is in the original widescreen aspect ratio of 1.85:1 (anamorphic). The source print is clean. Colors are natural. Contrast and sharpness are fine. There is fine film grain throughout although this isn't distracting. Thankfully the English subtitles are optional.
I bought this movie to catch up on Gregoire Colin's antics - to see how he'd graduated from Olivier Olivier and Beau Travail for example. Although there was nothing wrong with his performance, I felt that the script was so lamentable and so laboured that there was no way I would recommend this jejeune movie to anyone without jeopardising the friendship. It is just wet! Praise the Lord it is available at a Loss Leader price, otherwise I would be liable to self flagellate with a plastic appendage. Catherine, what were you thinking?
Not sure even two stars - it's ok - I laughed some - seems to wander - and the chemistry of protagonists is limited
The movie shows a fair amount of skin, but that isn't really the point - it is the movie within a movie, and the director being driven nuts by her male lead who is ambivalent about doing the nude scene about which the whole film revolves Anne Parillaud was My Femme Nikita; Catherine Breillat has directed several such films (I think this might have been somewhat more than a little autobiographical - the film within the film resembles "Fat Girl"
I couldn't get past the first 30 minutes. The story in the story, girl and guy on beach trying to make out (that's as far as I got) was annoying. Sorry, just applies to me. I'm certain it would appeal to others.
Terrible movie definitely do not recommend. Weird story line, bad acting, and terrible picture. Looks older than it really is. Do not buy!!!!
Crap. French Pretentious. Very Boring. No comedy and no sex either. Ugly. Waste of your time and money. Enough said
1.0 out of 5 stars
Sex or comedy lite
In short this film was very disappointing. It was lite on content, lite on acting, lite on story line and plot, and very lite on anything erotic. It was shallow and obvious.

SEX IS COMME Y DISENT...
L'anti "Nuit Américaine"(de Truffaut), pour le moins! Ce film est une réflexion terriblement désenchantée, une sorte de "making-off" acerbe et autocritique - où l'on ne sait trop si finit par dominer l'agacement de la réalisatrice qui nous contamine peu à peu, ou bien la froideur croissante, glaçante, d'un regard froid, glacial, figé sur des amants froids, dans une piece glacée. Jusqu'à ce qu'éclate en mille morceaux, en mille images volées, en mille mini-viols par indiscrétion, l'intimité de la femme, de l'actrice exposée à la monstration, qui se brûle à cette glace; - jusqu'à ce que pète aux visages des regardeurs et des regardeuses déconfits, la gêne profonde et l'éclaboussure d'une faute collective que tous ont tue: celle que notre vision, atone et anesthésiée fait taire en nous, posée sur le corps disséqué de nos sexualités, celle de notre surdite à la féminité réelle. Un beau film, n'empêche! Sans blague! M.A.B.

and this clip is from Sex Is Comedy,
a 2002 film directed by Caterine Breillat.
Despite the title, the movie really is not a comedy.
In fact, it's a fairly intense drama
on the subject of the making of a film
It's based on Breillat's own experience
It starts Anne Parillaud as Jeanne, the director,
who is working the actor played by Gregoire Colin
and the actress played by Roxane Mesquida.
It's actually one of the great movies about movie-making.
Its subject is the combination of practical artifice
into the making of a worthwhile film.
is the director's relationship to her actors.
It's not an abstract relationship at all,
on the contrary, it's an intensely personal relationship
that's calibrated to the personality of the performer
and Jeanne knows that if her actors
anything she tells them to do on camera won't mean a thing.
She understands the moral danger that the actors
are confronting in playing intense sex scenes.
And she personally implicates herself in that danger,
manipulating her actors in order to get what she wants.
She's discovering her film in the act of filming it.
In the process, she sparks terrible conflict with the actor,
really destroying him emotionally along the way,
and this in turn puts her own film at risk.
So if filming an intimate and explicit sex scene
is such a reckless leap into the void,
That's where the artifice comes in.
First of all, where the body is concerned,
there are certain embarrassing practicalities
and the director needs to cope with them and overcome them.
But the last thing the young man about to play
an intense sex scene needs is for his genitals
to become the subject of collective laughter.
This game, where Jeanne simultaneously inflates and deflates
the actor's ego, is the center of the story.
As for the actress, she enjoys Jeanne's empathy throughout.
Her fragility, her vulnerability, her blend of desire
and reticence are ultimately the subject
not of Sex is Comedy but of the film Jeanne is making.
As it turns out, she projects her own moral recklessness
onto the actress as well, with unpredictable
It's as if, in the real emotional struggle that the film
is made of, Jeanne knows who's going to pay the price.
Sex doesn't just reveal the body, it reveals the soul
and put the actor's very sense of identity at risk.
That's why Jeanne knows it's the thing most worth filming
and the most dangerous thing to film both for the actors
and, in terms of moral responsibility, for herself.
Breillat's film isn't just about sex,
or about the filming of sex, it's about herself filming sex
in a way that's both self revealing and self-accusing.
