Details

This special limited edition slipcover (designed by Jilian Adel) is limited to 1,000 units and is only available on our website and at select indie retailers. Absolutely no major retailers will be stocking them.

Established in 2000 and based in New York City, IFC Films is a leading U.S. distributor of independent film. Its unique distribution model makes independent films available to a national audience by releasing them in theaters as well as on VOD. Partnered with OCN Distribution, IFC will release new titles on home video and revisit past favorites in brand new editions, with many making their HD physical media debuts. 

Acclaimed director François Ozon (Swimming Pool, 8 Women) helms this erotic tale of sexual awakening. After losing her virginity, 17-year-old budding beauty Isabelle (Marine Vacth) takes up a secret life as a call girl, meeting her older gentlemen clients for erotic hotel room trysts. Throughout, she remains curiously aloof, showing little interest in the encounters themselves or the money she makes, while Ozon slyly refrains from offering easy answers. As the enigmatic Isabelle, Marine Vacth is magnetic, delivering a star-making breakout performance in this sleek and sexy coming-of-age drama.

Reviews

Good movie

"Interesting Drama. That release is great. The slipcover isn't my favorite but overall this edition is worth adding to the collection."

— Jonathan D. (5/5)

A Quiet and Thoughtful Coming-of-Age Drama

"Young & Beautiful is a quiet, emotionally complex drama that approaches its subject matter with restraint and nuance. Rather than sensationalizing its themes, the film stays focused on character and emotional distance, which makes it feel more reflective and unsettling over time. The pacing is deliberate, allowing small moments and subtle shifts in behavior to carry the emotional weight. The lead performance is especially strong, giving the film a detached but compelling center that keeps you invested even when the story becomes uncomfortable. As a release, it’s very well presented. The transfer looks clean and natural, preserving the film’s soft visual style and understated cinematography without looking overly processed. The slipcover is a nice touch for collectors. The artwork fits the tone of the film well and gives the release an elegant shelf presence. Overall, this is a thoughtful and well-presented drama that lingers because of its quiet, controlled approach."

— Tim L. (5/5)

Another fine delivery from Vinegar Syndrome

"I have no complaints at all about my recently received Blu-ray of YOUNG & BEAUTIFUL. Thank you, guys! : )"

— Quentin D. (5/5)

Another great Ozon drama. Any

"Another great Ozon drama. Any release that gives me Charlotte Rampling is a treasure in my book even though her role was smaller than I would have liked. Really well done release. Been wanting to see this one for years."

— Bryan K. (5/5)

Double life

"Very engaging, and poignant film. Marine Vacth really commands the screen, through her beauty, and her terrific portrayal of Isabelle. You can never go wrong with Charlotte Rampling in a film either. Some nice extras on the disc as well. Well done IFC."

— Ted A. (4/5)

Luscious

"A luscious film with a performance from the lead actress that ensures that it doesn't merely devolve into a continental man's fantasy. Directed and acted with surprising depth."

— Oleh S. (5/5)

Young & Beautiful
