Eine einfache Geschichte: Directed by Claude Sautet. With Romy Schneider, Bruno Cremer, Claude Brasseur, Roger Pigaut. A simple story about simple people. A 38 year old divorced woman (Marie), who now has a lover (Serge) but decides to leave him, abort his baby, and then returns with her ex-husband (Georges). Their daily life and of their friends, who have the same typical problems.

“This was the fifth and last collaboration of Romy Schneider and Claude Sautet. Sautet did for her what von Sternberg did for Marlene Dietrich–gave her star quality in well-written vehicles. Cesar et Rosalie and Les choses de la vie are wonderful to watch today; they have pace and drama, plenty of verve. Une Histoire simple, by contrast, has little drama, slack pace and characters you donu0026#39;t get involved with. The group dynamic-the characters all working in the same company-lowers the interest. Itu0026#39;s a film made to please a feminist segment of the population, like Mazurskyu0026#39;s An Unmarried Woman.”
