Un moment d'égarement (1977)
(In a Wild Moment)
Country: FR
Technical: Eastmancolor 81m
Director: Claude Berri
Cast: Jean-Pierre Marielle, Victor Lanoux, Christine Dejoux
Synopsis:
Old friends holiday together in the south of France with their respective daughters, and the unthinkable happens.
Review:
Eh, oui mais, on est en France… Archetypal French drama from the age of permissiveness, and it does deal with its character's predicament with a modicum of gravitas, thanks in part to Marielle's impeccable professionalism. Still, even at eighty minutes this is yawn-inducingly uneventful, and does not even make much of a show of capturing its locale with any vividness. It does, however, effectively evoke a period from the past. Incomprehensibly, someone decided to remake it forty years later (with Cassel and Cluzet).
