Finding the first title (also reviewed) in Rohmer's loose film series to be the most interesting one out of the group,I got set to watch the final in the series,with the hope that Rohmer would wrap things up in a similar fashion.
View on the film:
Bringing the curtain down on the series,writer/directing auteur Éric Rohmer & cinematographer Bernard Lutic collide the two major visual motifs of the movies via all the interior scenes being pulled back to their barest, breached white form,and the great outdoors being drizzled with floral colours and a breezy atmosphere.
Continuing his theme of the bourgeoisie,the screenplay by Rohmer takes a refreshingly comedic slant,which while never outrageously hilarious does inject the title with a dry wit that gives the criss-crossing romances between Blanche and Lea a charming zest,as they tell each other comedies and proverbs.
