Francois Ozon makes his feature-length directing debut with 1998's "Sitcom," building storytelling skills sharpened on short films and 1997's "See the Sea." The helmer (who also scripts) takes aim at the family unit with the endeavor, looking to pry open the supposed normalcy of a household suddenly going through a torrent of changes. Ozon displays his wicked sense of humor and fondness for extremity with the movie, which has its share of shock value and strangeness. There's also a certain darkness to the picture that's fascinating to watch, with the cast committing to Ozon's fetishistic imagination in a heroic way, making the viewing experience surprisingly palatable.
