Catherine Deneuve once again as a beautiful woman torn between a rich older man and handsome poor younger one. Adding to the sense of familiarity is the fact the man is played by Michel Piccoli, who played this sort of role against Denueve before (as her aspirational lover in Belle de Jour and real lover in Benjamin), and her younger lover is a journalist, as he was in Manon 70.
This movie is boring. It goes on forever with far too many scenes of people just hanging out and talking. Occasionally they go to a bar or lounge about in bed for something different. Deneuve is pretty but also blank faced and unable to convey much of a character - which mightn't matter so much if the people around her weren't as dull.
