Paul Verhoeven is back with "Elle", mostly a psychological drama that kicks off with a middle-aged woman, Elle (Isabella Huppert) in the midst of being assaulted (phyisically and sexually) in her own home by a masked man. Then the story peels away the layers of this woman with details from her distant past, and the previous decades of her life. Lots of twisty windings in this tale. Very European in flavor (French-language film).
I give it 3 stars or a grade of B.

this was just sublime. Huppert was amazing. no fucking way she is 64!
i haven't seen Fences yet, but this was Oscar worthy. unbelievable her expressions, her emotions, her toughness. almost no traces this is a Paul Verhoeven film. maybe the videogame imagery, but this is unlike anything i've seen him do. well done!
