In Anais' fantasy, both are jealous of her obvious infidelity, and she critic remorselessly plays them off of one another. Anais' fantasies are, of course, played against the reality of Elena's physical introduction to sex. One night, Fernando sneaks into the girls' room and talks Elena into critic going all the way. The scene lingers for a long time, as he must make seemingly endless confessions of love and promises of devotion before Elena will finally surrender. Anais, pretending to be asleep, cries silently because she sees through Fernando's critic empty platitudes and faulty reasoning -- this is the common "betrayal of lovers' discourse," in Breillat's phrasing. This seduction sequence's duration and relentless coaxing makes it one of the most quietly devastating scenes in recent memory.
