Well analysed - Jalouse review by CSF
A woman ruins her life and her entourage's with her jealousy. What I don't understand is that it seems to happen all of a sudden. I thought one was born with jealousy and suffers from it all his/her life.
The violence is hidden, the suffering is visible, the obsession is obvious. Jealousy is an illness. Many films deal with it. The other one is 'L'Enfer' by Claude Chabrol. But, 'Jalouse" is more refined and not as pathological as L"Enfer. Foenkinos shows how jealousy can be such an invisible poison. It takes a very long time for everybody to see it, even longer to understand it; by then the damages are there. Fascinating to watch.
