On Demand Weekly

On Demand Weekly provides new movie reviews of hot movies on demand and from the POV of watching from the comfort of your home. Today’s review: Don’t Look Back (Ne Te Retourne Pas). Tell us what you think at mailbag@ondemandweekly.com.

Directed by Marina de Van, Don’t Look Back (IFCFilms).

The French psychodrama Don’t Look Back follows Jeanne (Sophia Marceau), a French writer, wife and mother of two, whose world becomes disturbingly unsettled as she starts to see her life unravel. She first witnesses small changes taking place in her home, and her hysteria escalates as she literally morphs into an Italian woman with the same name (Monica Bellucci); but surprisingly, no one around her seems to notice. She doesn’t recognize her husband, her children and her own mother.

Jeanne is certain that the changes happening around her symbolize something profound, but her family dismisses her fears as the result of stress and fatigue from writing her novel. She ultimately goes in search of a mysterious woman who will be able to bring new understanding to the sudden chaos.
