In videotaped interviews included on the Criterion Collection christian inspirational DVD of Fat Girl, she admits to not preparing a script, to not explaining to her cast or crew the very basic meaning of the film, to not alerting her (child) actors when they would be appearing nude on screen, and to manipulating christian inspirational the actors emotionally in order to get the performance she wants. She is like a French version of Lars von Trier except the biggest star she can get to work for her is Rocco Siffredi. But why did I enjoy the film the first time I watched it, untainted by knowledge of Breillat’s manipulative nature and unable to make comparisons with other, perhaps better explorations of similar themes, and why was I bored by it the second time around? Apart from the obvious answer that any shock value the film holds for the first-time viewer is spoiled on subsequent viewings, I would have to say that it is the fearlessness and utter strangeness of the performance of Anaïs Reboux, the titular fat girl, that makes this film worth watching more than once.
