"My Mother" - Is it maternal love, or a romance with one's mother?

Talking about the Oedipus complex, how annoying it is!!!

With Aunt Huppert on one side, and the super handsome guy from "The Dreamers" on the other, there's an unusual mother-son relationship, which is quite scary!

By the way, Louis Garrel, can't you just be normal? In "The Dreamers," you're messing around with your sister, and in this movie, you're having a romance with your mother!!! How are female fans supposed to feel about that? Alright, ladies who've finished watching this strange film, prepare your needles to stab your eyes...

Plot:

The mother, lost in a sea of sexuality, sets up a scheme to guide her son into a game of love. The interplay between the inner actions of the mother and son is an important design element in the film — the son chases after his mother's aggressive pursuit of sex, while the mother chooses to end her life amidst the ashes of her sexual desires, leaving behind a frightened and helpless son.
