See more Jul 29, 2012 how many of us have come across characters like this in real life.....excellent See more Feb 29, 2012 This is much more stilted than many of Rohmer's films, with the actors feeling very staged and formal. This doesn't feel like a commentary on the shallow aspects of the character's lives either--it just seems like wooden acting. That said, it still engages due in large part to Chaulet's presence. See more Jan 28, 2012 Talk, talk, talk, talk, talk. Maybe it's that the translation doesn't do the dialogue justice, but I couldn't muster any interest in the stilted, self-centered analytical musings of any of the characters. Add to this a decision to tell the story in an uncinematic fashion-- static camera, no action, flat colors (at least in my VHS version), and drab settings-- and you get one colossal bore. Oddly, I recognize that this isn't really that far removed from a film by Whit Stillman, whom I love, and whose films are often given the same criticism. See more Read all reviews
