<라폴로니드 : 관용의 집>(2011), <생 로랑>(2014)의 베르트랑 보넬로 감독은 헨리 제임스의 『정글의 짐승』을 자유롭게 각색, 세 시대에 걸쳐 환생하는 한 여자와 남자, 그리고 매번 두려움 때문에 실패하는 이들의 관계를 카메라에 담았다. 감독은 20세기 초에 대량 생산된 셀룰로이드 인형, 긴장된 톱 모델의 아름다움, 인위적인 행복을 추구하는 공허한 눈빛을 한 미래의 사람들 간의 연결고리를 만든다. 레아 세두는 1910년대 프랑스 부르주아 여인, 2014년 로스앤젤레스에서 활약하는 모델, 2044년 더 이상 감정이 존재하지 않는 세상의 인물을 연기하며 현시대 가장 뛰어난 배우 중 한 명이라는 것을 입증한다. 다리오 아르젠토, 데이비드 린치, 데이비드 크로넨버그를 연상시키는 매혹적인 이미지를 연출하며 베르트랑 보넬로는 시대극과 현대 스릴러, SF를 유려하게 넘나든다. <더 비스트>는 이 시대의 모든 두려움을 형상화한 철학적 콩트이기도 하다.
