“I saw this movie a long time ago when it was billed as u0026quot;Femmes Fatalesu0026quot;. I remember it as one of the most bizarrely amusing films Iu0026#39;ve ever seen. While perhaps not as sophisticated as Blieru0026#39;s later efforts, as I remember, it had a crude power and was a scathing look at male/female relations: a kind of cinematic exploration of the male id done with great honesty and comic bravura. I wish I could see it again…but Iu0026#39;ve never seen it offerred anywhere. It doesnu0026#39;t seem to be on VHS or DVD. If anyone knows where to get it I wish theyu0026#39;d post it here.”
