A surprise delight

Seen during original U.S. release in small Wilshire Bl.theater west of downtown L.A.I found it a surprise delight. Fluffy, yet still poignant, as opposed to somber, which was the predominant mood of contemporaneous imports:"Monika"'s for example. Haven't seen it since.

An unbelievably beautiful and bad movie

A young girl goes for holidays to her grandfather's farm in the French country. She spies her neighbors. A dream cast: Isabelle Adjani, Francis Huster, Georges Marchal, Jacques Weber, etc. A wonder of cinematography by Ghislain Cloquet (Oscar, BAFTA, César for "Tess") and the OMG! lovely Muriel Català... BUT a cheesy dialog then/and a bad acting (except for the 5 years old Valentine Varela, everybody overplays!) And unfortunately Muriel Català is a strikingly bad actress... Anyway, I love that bad movie! A Nina Companeez and Mag Bodard's bad movie is still worth seeing!
