Стефан Одран
It is shot in a wider 1.66 aspect ratio, unlike the 1.37 Academy ratio of almost all Rohmer's other films, and has an intermittent musical score, which is rare in his œuvre. Again, though he normally wrote his pictures, in this case he is only credited with the story and the often barrack-room dialogue is by Paul Gégauff. Unlike almost all his work, the plot revolves around three men, with the many women that are shown being incidental and virtually interchangeable. A Nouvelle Vague characteristic was to include cameos for fellow directors and favourite actors, and in this film one can spot Jean-Luc Godard, Stéphane Audran, Marie Dubois and Macha Méril.
