Sibyl of Many Sides

.
Another day, another NYFF review -- today it's Sibyl, director Justine Triet's dramedy that swings as melodramatically between comedy and drama as does its leading lady, played to full tilt perfection by Virginie Efira. Efira isn't pictured above though -- instead I picked a photo of the three faces I knew beforehand, going in to Sibyl, belonging to Saint Laurent himself Gaspard Ulliel, Blue is the Warmest Color's Adèle Exarchopoulos, and Toni Erdmann megastar Sandra Hüller. The three of them have a love triangle that would be a regular movie's love triangle but Sibyl's about the madwoman who comes swinging in wildly and busts up the normal stories. Anyway click on over to The Film Experience to read my review -- this one's one of the lighter flicks at NYFF but the actors are all absolutely smashing.
