Description: José Bénazéraf's (Bordel SS and Adolescence pervertie)
career began in the early sixties with sexy thrillers that established
his reputation as a man to watch. Once upon a time he was the darling
of the critics, his name a trademark for provocative and classy cinema.
The New York Herald Tribune said he was “as important as Godard and
Resnais”, and Henris Langlois, founder of the famous Cinematheque,
announced that “his films are like rivers carrying stones that are
absolute gems.”
But that was then, and now he’s pretty much forgotten. His downfall
came fast and can be traced to that period in the mid-seventies when
censorship loosened, giving him the freedom to do exactly what he
wanted, which meant move deeper into the taboo territory of eroticism…
Frustration is one of his strongest films...as with Bunuel's Belle De
Jour, which it resembles in some ways, there is no easy distinction
made between fantasy and reality in Frustration."
