François Ozon's Filmography
by JC_Stewart89 | created - 28 Jul 2018 | updated - 18 Mar 2021 | PublicA personal ranking of the career of one of the best contemporary French filmmakers. A unique blend of dramatic and comedic psycho-sexual films of supreme intimacy not mere exploitation or voyeurism. Delving into the psyche of his finely nuanced characters and the complicated situations in their lives. The French Almodovar has been in the business for 20+ years and still doesn’t get quite the recognition he deserves internationally.
