'Gentle Monster' Review: Léa Seydoux in Unsettling Marie Kreutzer Film - The Hollywood Reporter
Tackling a subject close to home for writer-director Marie Kreutzer, Gentle Monster examines the fallout when Philip Weiss (Laurence Rupp) — a middle-class Austrian documentary maker, father and beloved husband — is accused of watching, distributing and maybe even making child pornography. Kreutzer’s colleague, the actor Florian Teichtmeister who appeared in her acclaimed feature Corsage, was caught up in a similar case, resulting in his being sentenced to two years in prison.
