Frerick Fonteyne's 'Une Liason Pornagrahique' is a brief, but very French film, with a stylish female protagonist, and lots of talking about sex. We see the story of a couple's relationship; they also recount their own recollections of it, which interestingly, do not always agree, though the film itself never settles their differences. But it's an essential part of the relationship that both partners go into the affair with a deliberate reserve; and although that coolness melts over time, the viewer is never allowed to get close enough to really care about either one. It's not badly executed, but I never felt truly involved.
