Magnetic heroines and twisty plots make Amazon Studio's 'Chloe' and HBO's 'Irma Vep' first-class escapist viewing
Becky Green is a social-media obsessed outsider with a bit of a stalking problem. Mira Harberg is a coddled actress with a dramatic love life and a film project about to go off the rails. You know the types.
Instead of cranking out a standard unreliable-narrator thriller or an oh-so-meta piece of Hollywood navel gazing, “Chloe” mastermind Alice Seabright and “Irma Vep” auteur Olivier Assayas go their own, weird ways. Like their unpredictable heroines and the quicksilver actresses who play them, “Chloe” and “Irma Vep” have a lot happening beneath their shimmering surfaces, and watching their stories unfold is the trip of the summer.
Don’t weep for Becky just yet. In addition to being an angry outsider, Becky is a crafty opportunist. If she can’t live Chloe’s good life, she can at least invade it. As Becky finds out more about the messy lives of Chloe and her friends, we find out why she cares so much. And as writer/director Seabright and the fearless Doherty tunnel into the life of betrayal and tragedy that turned Becky into the headcase she is now, “Chloe” becomes a deeply satisfying study of friendship, mother-daughter bonds and the shadows lurking in the corners of all those pretty pictures.
