Full Moon in Paris

The fourth film of Eric Rohmer's Comedies and Proverbs series is a cool, ironic yet compassionate cautionary tale of need, greed, deceit and self-delusion.

Finding the man she lives with in her suburbs staid and clinging, a young woman (Pascale Ogier) rents a pied-à-terre in central Paris to give self some space during the week. But does she wants too much? A cool, ironic yet compassionate cautionary tale of need, greed, deceit and self-delusion, played (and choreographed) to perfection: Fabrice Luchini is especially amusing as the protagonist's slightly shifty friend.
