Elles (2011)
10/10
nous sommes toutes des putes

This has to be the best movie I've seen about the male gaze, from the female's perspective. As a woman, this hits hard and close to home. You don't need to be a sex worker to relate to the stories. "I haven't told anyone about my lifestyle... aren't we all lonely?" "Are you sexy for me?" "The hardest part is the lies" "you have to be more attentive to him".

It's so sad we live in a patriarchal world. Every man can be someone's confidant / husband / friend but he can also be other's abuser. They see us, but not really. Anyone who is not liking this film either they're man or missing the central point of the story.
