Full Plot Details

Pierre, a young man of privilege whose anonymously-published novel is a hit and who is about to marry his beautiful blonde cousin Lucie, abandons everything when a brunette vagrant tells him her secret late one night in the woods: that she is his own sister Isabelle, abandoned by their father. Pierre breaks up with Lucie and leaves his doting mother to head for Paris with Isabelle, intent on knowing the dark side of human nature. He begins a novel, sending chapters to his publisher under a pseudonym and his relationship with Isabelle moves beyond the fraternal. In the winter, frail Lucie comes to live with them and family jealousies mount. Pierre might have discovered despair instead of truth.

Movie Reviews

ReelTalk Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Donald J. LevitAs one expects from this filmmaker, 'Pola X' is offbeat in the extreme.
Filmcritic.com - 8/10 by Jeremiah KippExcessive in every way, Pola X flounders and drowns in its own melodrama.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 8/10 by Dennis SchwartzIIt is a precious film, though parts of it may not be pleasing or decipherable.
Sacramento Bee - 8/10 by Joe BaltakeAudacious but not completely successful, Pola X transports Melville's story to contemporary France.
New Yorker - 7/10 by Richard BrodyPlays like a passionate, harrowing confession.
Reeling Reviews - 6/10 by Laura Cliffordbeautiful to look at and listen to but it has a cold heart.
User Review - 10/10 by Jason SThis film is beautiful. I find myself full of love, pity and despair for the characters. My greed for a happy ending was mutilated; of course, it could end no other way. AWESOME MOVIE!
User Review - 10/10 by Linda LI watched Pola X because Scott Walker composed the film score and I admire his music a lot. Frankly, I expected a somewhat pretentious and possibly incoherent French movie. I was wrong. The vision of the film quickly managed to engage my attention to the fullest - starting with the opening sequence, which shows black and white footage of military airplanes throwing bombs at graves at the sounds of music and Scott Walker's beautiful wailing voice. The film explores the identity crisis of Pierre (Guillaume Depardieu - a brilliant choice for the role) and his consequential (self-)destruction. The story is divided into two parts ? the first depicts Pierre's carefree life in a beautiful house in the French countryside and the second follows his utter personal disintegration after he abandons everything and moves to Paris to live in squalor with his supposed half-sister. Both parts contain some amazingly stunning photography ? the first very colorful and bright, the second utterly gloomy and nearly apocalyptic ? a true aesthetic feast. Pola X is a fascinating and quite unique movie experience.
User Review - 10/10 by Stefani Hgreat cast. strong story with ambiguous character.
User Review - 8/10 by Christine SRoger Ebert says [of the film]: "Faithful readers will know I have an affection for raving lunatics and am grateful for films that break free of the dismal bonds of formula to cartwheel into overwrought passionate excess. This is a weakness, but I am protective of it. " This sums up my enjoyment of these types of films... A rich, disturbing, sensual experience. Bizarre, haunting, excessive--wow.
