One to Another Trailers

A story about bunch of people who live in a town in provincial France. At the center of it all is Pierre, a conceited and vain bisexual musician in his late teens who acts as a magnet, to varying degrees, for a whole array of characters - from his sister Lucie, with whom he has a heated incestuous relationship, to a city councilor with whom he participates in gay orgies. When Pierre turns up dead, Lucie investigates the reasons for his demise and charts the network of sadomasochistic relationships that crisscross the town.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

CHACUN SA NUIT (ONE TO ANOTHER) - CATCH IT ( B ) Chacun Sa Nuit is about One girl having sexual relationships with her 3 friends and Brother. A sexual relationship between a Sister and Her Brother is quite disturbing, shocking and provocative. According to the director the movie is based upon the true events occur in France, now how much reality in that is no one knows. After watching this movie I realize that French people are quite bold and provocative then I've expected. The movie is good though it rolls back & forth between Present time and Flashbacks, which takes time to understand. The movie touches various taboo topics like Sister and Brother sexual relation, Bisexuality, gay sex, guys having sex for money & girl seducing people to get out the facts about who killed here Brother. The Whole setup of the movie is quite artistic though when you are totally engage in the story and nakedness of the movie, the ending is quite Awful & for the Director to say that Adolescent let you do crimes like killing other person without any general motive is unbelievable. Who know what happened in real life but for cinema it's just not acceptable. The stars of movie are young and beautiful; apparently they are naked and soak under Sun naked most of the time. Lizzie Brochere looks quite beautiful & she isn't shy in being naked on screen. All the other guys, Arthur Dupont (Pierre), Guillaume Bache (Nicolas), Pierre Perrier (Sebastien) and Nicolas Nollet (Baptiste) are good looking young boys. My final verdict is, watch it for the Skin & Sex in the movie, who doesn't like beautiful people laying naked all the time? But if you're looking for a master piece with satisfying suspenseful ending it disappoints a little.

Based upon actual events, this film is certainly not for everyone's tastes, but it is an intriguing, erotic, and fascinating watch. I'm not sure a film such as this could be made in the United States because of the nudity and overt sex that takes place amongst the young actors. It appears that here in the good old U.S.A., we know such things take place, but we don't seem to be able to admit it. Oh, it's fine to show teenagers killing each other, but heaven forbid that they take off their clothes and have so good, old steamy sex. Hopefully, these statements have sufficiently warned you that - if you view this film - you're going to see people under the legal age nude and engaging in sensuous acts. As one reviewer on this site put it, "The whole cast is beautiful, like they were born not to wear clothes." The story is of five, young friends - one girl and four boys - who enjoy life. Their relationship is symbiotic and sexual in various ways. One of the boys is the girl's brother and the alpha male of the group. He is handsome, sensual, and especially engaging - a master of social and sexual relationships. In addition to being the leader of the group's successful band, he is a high-class hustler engaging in both heterosexual and homosexual relationships. He is murdered - savagely beaten to death.Is the relationship between the girl and her brother incestuous? It is left for the viewer to determine if they ever had intercourse, but it is made clear in the film that they fully explore each other's bodies and sensual psyches. Both the girl and her brother do engage in sex with one or more of the other boys. - all of this in a very open fashion.The action in the film is not linear which presents somewhat of a job for the viewer to piece together all of the various events and relationships in the film. Most of the film is from the girl's viewpoint as her mind jumps here and there remembering events before and after her brother's death. She is so devastated by the death that she has had a breakdown. Her mental anguish is made worse by the fact that the murderer of her brother is unknown, and that the police have exhausted most of their leads. She is obsessed with the thought of finding her brother's killer.Unlike many French films, all is revealed in the end, and the viewer is left to consider a mesmerizing work of cinematic art highlighting excellent acting and bold depictions of the sexual lives of five young people.

A very french film. It stars a bunch of teenagers in some provincial town in France, living their lives and loving each other – both mentally and physically. A murderous event interrupts the lives of five very close people. Nudity and sexuality are present throughout, but they are not exploited, they rather serve as essential elements of the story that unfolds. And in a way – this probably is the most "french" element –, they are both graphic and tasteful at the same time. The physical attractions cannot be excluded from the characters' thoughts and deeds and developments, yet it is exactly the difference and/or connection between mind and body that marks a central element. Scenes jump from one point of the time line to another, yet the overall narration and presentation is quite realistic (after all, the film is based on a true story). Luckily, this is neither a moral tale nor an "investigating" look at the nightlife of the hedonistic youth of our time; it is a very "talky" movie which some inevitably will find boring while others will be mesmerized. Given it will not be shown often (which looks as if), "Chacun sa Nuit" is very likely to receive a sort of cult potential in the coming years.

Pierre and Lucie, brother and sister, are in a full sexual development swing with their friends, until one day, Pierre does not come home. The question of the movie is what happened to him. The curiosity of the movie, is how Lucie goes about finding out. We follow her as she uses the only power she has discovered, her body, to try to obtain answers in a micro- cosmos of perversity and sexual adolescent indulgence. It is unfortunate that the movie suffers from a confusion from start to finish, due partly to the resemblance of the characters, partly to the bizarre nature of the script and partly to the (time-frame) editing. Consequently, the audience loses interest in what could have been an original youthful tale. Lucie's manipulation of others through their desire for her body is taken as her strength, which, even if taken as unfortunate, does not evolve into a more mature version. Character development is perhaps a lot asked for a group of youngsters, but a little more character would have helped. If you venture into the dark hall for this one, make sure its late and you are tired. You will leave with the inspirational originality of the sexual/ amorous melange without being too affected by the overall work. But beware of just being lulled into the realms of your own faraway dreamworld.
