Les Biches (1968)

“I wish Claude Chabrol would loosen up his style a bit here – so many shots suggest that the film could have been a much more erotically potent psychosexual romantic drama if he leaned harder into the melodramatic possibilities in store.

Then Stéphane Audran’s piercing eyes might actually cut into us.”

They believe a thousand other simple things. I ask of you a little of this childlike simplicity, and, to bring us luck, let me speak four truly magic words, childhood's open sesame: "Once upon a time..."
