“The New Girlfriend” is a frustrating movie, mainly because writer-director Francois Ozon cannot settle on a tone for the feature. At times it feels like a comedy; at other moments, it shifts to erotic romance. Still other scenes play like melodrama. This continual swing keeps you from connecting with any of the characters in this French import.
