A glamorous film with a very simple story that will make you a short but slow French experience. Of course, it may not be everyone's taste!
Once again great script, complex characters, personal philosophies and everything else we love on Rohmer.
Great movie to watch if you like to watch French people think for hours
Classic drama of the married man. Some great ideas, nice plot, good acting. Would love to see a remake of this in the nowadays context.
