    The Crime Is Mine

    ★★★★½

    Following with the French Film Tour, we have the latest film of François Ozon (despite Peter Von Kant hasn't been released in Mexican theaters yet).

    Alongside Frantz, this is another period film, but in this case, it's a mixture of crime and comedy with some glimpses of Demy.

    1st: What the heck was that!?
    2nd: Congratulations Ari Aster. You made, without any doubt, the most stressful film of this year.

    Alongside Luis Estrada's ¡Que Viva México! (I recommend you to watch his former works, specially if you aren't Mexican), this is another dark comedy of 3 hours with divisive opinions.

    The first half hour was very dense, but also very random. The following two arcs of the next 90 minutes were more restrained, but with its awkward and…
