From crtically acclaimed and often controversial director Catherine Breillat (A ma souer; Romance) comes this 1988 film about teenage sexuality. Starring Delphine Zentout as Lili, a pouty and voluptuous 14-year-old, who is caravan camping with her family in Biarritz. Although self-aware and able to hold her own in a café conversation with a concert pianist she meets, she has a wild streak and she's testing her powers over men, finding that she doesn't always control her moods or actions, and besides ...she's impatient with being a virgin !.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good film, terrible transfer 2 Sep 2002
By Randy Buck - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
Fox Lorber seems determined to make viewing their DVD transfers hard work. Their murky, dim DVDs are particularly frustrating, since many of their titles are truly wonderful foreign films. This picture, 36 FILLETTE, is touted as a "French LOLITA," but in many ways, is more reminiscent of [movie title] The young heroine has a grating perverse streak (only blind-and-deaf lust can explain why her older suitor doesn't bind and gag her mid-tirade), but she's nonetheless touching and real; all her anger and venom seem mere cover for a palpable sense of longing. Director Briellat, as usual, rushes into areas of female sexuality where angels fear to tread, here with moving results. The heroine's sly smile in the film's final frame's earned, and you're glad for her. Persevere through this lousy transfer; the picture's worth it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Awful DVD 31 Jan 2002
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
The film may be worth seeing, but this DVD is of the LOWEST imaginable quality and I strongly recommend you avoid buying it. It is clearly copied from a VHS tape: the subtitles are blurry and cannot be removed from the screen, and the video quality is even worse than a good VHS tape in that the image is excessively grainy and has scratches and dust throughout. Finally, and even more troubling, it is a FULLSCREEN transfer, not a widescreen transfer. I notice that IMDb claims the DVD is 1.66 aspect ratio, but my DVD (purchased Jan 2002) is definitely not.

4.0 out of 5 stars Transcends the American brat style 7 July 2000
By Dennis Littrell - Published on Amazon.com
This is a love story off the beaten track clearly in the tradition of Louis Malle and Francois Truffaut, told without prudishness or gratuitous violence.

The title refers to a children's dress size that the 14-year-old lead, Lili, played with snap by Delphine Zentout, is bursting out of. Billed as a "French Lolita," Zentout is not all that fetching at first glance. She's a chubbette with light skin and thick black hair and not exactly pretty. But she has intriguing eyes and a saucy way about her.

Lili is "discovering" her sexuality, but won't let herself be impregnated. The playboy, played with grace and economy by Etienne Chicot, falls in love with her in spite of himself and "tolerates" her reluctance while being partially satisfied in other ways, one of which we used to call a "cold f..." They are a believable match because sexually they are equal: she precocious, he experienced.

Catherine Beillet directs without sentimentality while guiding Zentout to an interpretation that transcends the American brat style and leads us to a thoughtful view of feminine sexuality.
