Seems I can't win with Rohmer. Just when I'd concluded he was only good for static, philosophical debate with ciphers in lieu of flash and blood characters he weighs in with this entry which indicates that he HAS been watching to see how the Big Boys do it because this time around he actually takes his camera off the tripod, throws in the odd fluid sequence and even mixes between Master, Long, Mediumn and Close Shots. As if that weren't enough he goes further by using actors that we've actually HEARD of like Andre Dussollier and Arelle Dombasle. On the other hand he's still not paying a great deal of attention to plausibility and allowing coincidence too great a role in the scheme of things. However, on the whole this particular title isn't too hard to take, especially as a freebie with an English newspaper.
