| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzThe respected filmmaker delivers a clever and observant romantic drama that serves as a study on how the bourgeoisie operate behind middle-class conventions. |
| Eye for FilmAmber WilkinsonSautet's film offers an interesting snapshot of shifting sands in the Seventies sexual revolution. |
| User ReviewAmanda FC'est magnifique, simple, rien à dire de plus, juste à admirer un garnd moment de cinéma |
| User ReviewJohn GIt's a hard movie of Sautet. And something doesn't really fit in here. It is it the time of the century. His judgement on Cesar is extremely harsh and unrealistic. Still, the music is great, the play of Montand and Schneider superb. But it gives a bad feeling somewere. Perhaps that is the reason this movie is so good. |

| User ReviewGreg NA movie that will make sense to anyone who has been in an unhealthy relationship that just wouldn't die no matter what happened. Good acting and directing all around but what a pessimistic ending. |
| User ReviewQuiche EIl y a une chose que Sautet sait parfaitement faire c'est "construire une histoire" ! Captivant ! |
| User ReviewFrancisco FRomy Schneider proves she was the greatest actress of the 70's in France |
| User ReviewMéline ALe charme du film naît de la magie qui unit les trois interprètes, la séduction de Romy Schneider, la truculence d'Yves Montand et la classe de Sami Frey. Un petit miracle pour ce trio amoureux de l'amour. |
| User ReviewSteve BUn autre excellent film de Sautet avec Yves Montant qui domine nettement toute la production. |
