I loved every moment of this light, very New Wavey romance. What it may lack in depth it makes up for with an overflow of charm — and it does have much style and substance in the way it shows the development of love and trust, from shy smiles to tender, trusting embraces. The film was shot on a small budget and many of the stylistic outcomes may have been accidental — all the exterior shots are in color and interiors in b&w not for any purpose, but because that was all the color film Lalouch could afford. No matter. Editing is used to creative and meaningful effect anyway, and whether accident or great, careful art I don’t care. I absolutely adore it. As high as #12, I’m tempted to chart it.
