Reminiscent of the medieval legend of Tristan and Iseult but set among young middle-class people in a provincial city, it tells the story of a fatal romance between a loving husband and the attractive woman who moves in next door. The last of Truffaut's serious films, being followed by the more light-hearted Vivement dimanche!, it was the 39th highest-grossing film of the year, with a total of 1,087,600 admissions in France. ## Credits - **Director:** [François Truffaut](https://cinepixo.com/people/francois-truffaut) - **Screenplay:** [François Truffaut](https://cinepixo.com/people/francois-truffaut), [Jean Aurel](https://cinepixo.com/people/jean-aurel), [Suzanne Schiffman](https://cinepixo.com/people/suzanne-schiffman) - **Producer:** [François Truffaut](https://cinepixo.com/people/francois-truffaut) - **Original Music Composer:** [Georges Delerue](https://cinepixo.com/people/georges-delerue) - **Director of Photography:** [William Lubtchansky](https://cinepixo.com/people/william-lubtchansky) - **Editor:** [Martine Barraqué](https://cinepixo.com/people/martine-barraque) ## Cast - [Henri Garcin](https://cinepixo.com/people/henri-garcin) - [Roger Van Hool](https://cinepixo.com/people/roger-van-hool) - [Gérard Depardieu](https://cinepixo.com/people/gerard-depardieu) - [Philippe Morier-Genoud](https://cinepixo.com/people/philippe-morier-genoud) - [Véronique Silver](https://cinepixo.com/people/veronique-silver) - [Fanny Ardant](https://cinepixo.com/people/fanny-ardant) ## Criticism on CinePixo No reviews published yet.
