“Very good movie with excellent performances from Gerard Depardieu and Fanny Ardant. The emotions and performances are outstanding. If you have ever felt a strong love that borders on the irrational, then you may identify with this film. There are some small flaws of coincidences in the story. I found the last 20 minutes quite disturbing, and wish the writers found a different one. It seems to imply that real love must have a tragic ending. It is sort of an 19th Century u0026quot;romanticu0026quot; ending. Perhaps, thatu0026#39;s what they were shooting for in the modern cotext of France in the 1980u0026#39;s. But nonetheless one of Truffautu0026#39;s better films. What do you think?”
