    Another enjoyable Rivette film, though it lacks the sense of mystery and energy of his best films. This is more of a straighforward romantic comedy with typical Rivettian touches like the (6!)/(4!2!) character combinatorics and the interplay between life and theatre.

    Rivette's take on the Hollywood screwball comedy, and specifically Howard Hawks. He expertly incorporates the genre and director into his own milieu. Love how he makes Castellitto his Cary Grant and Bonnaffe his Jimmy Stewart.

    Jacque Rivette becomes very optimistic and humorous not like in his works before. Deapite it's more than 2 hours, you can smile after everything's over.

    A beautiful French film with a beautiful story. The characters are impossible not to love and the words they are saying have so much more feeling when heard in French.
