I'd like to write something about it, since I saw it not too long ago. It's hard. All I can say is that the emotional detachment in the film made me feel emotionally detached. I have intellectual memories of what I saw, and am not sure how to interpret them emotionally...which is usually how I remember films...how the film "felt".

It's a real contrast from say "Au Hazard Balthazar".

horrors unrelentingly she faced, which Mouchette showed. She never let her tormentors get the best of her, defeat her will. Ultimately, of course, she was destroyed but it was on her own terms.
