Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
The second of the 'Six Moral Tales', and more substantial than the first (La Boulangère de Monceau): here the focus is on two young men, Beuzin and Charrière, who take advantage of Catherine Sée's ethereal Suzanne to bum drinks and food off her, but the crunch comes when it's revealed which one she's actually interested in. Although the resources are relatively modest, Rohmer's elegant wordplay and his exquisite attunement to the vagaries of the human psyche are evident even at this early stage in the director's career.Author: TJ
