Stylish arthouse gloom from France. As a concept, Three Colours: Betty Blue sounds like a winner - loose-cannon actress Beatrice Dalle in a tale of a woman who’s lost her husband and child, struggling to make it. Slowly, though, you realise it’s only the pretext for the most austere, obscure, yet sensationalist French arthouse antics. Twenty-nine single-take shots that delight in graphic sex, stomach-churning imagery – the ingestion of broken glass – and doom, all stylishly filmed in the worst possible taste. Sadly, le freak, c’est chic. Process, on selected release 15 July 05.
