Plot
A middle-class woman leaves her husband for a feckless, working-class petty criminal.
Sinekatalog’s take
Maurice Pialat's raw drama has Isabelle Huppert leaving her husband for Gérard Depardieu's easygoing street criminal. Loose, naturalistic and sensual, with great chemistry, it is a vivid study of class and desire.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
