... study of Nadja Tesich, a Yugoslav-American studying in Paris. Something of a Valentine to the city, it's a charming look at a young woman's life which - in the early Sixties - seems full of possibilities. It's also an early example of Rohmer putting a young woman as the subject of the film, something he would later make a speciality, particularly in the six Comedies and Proverbs and the first two of the Tales of the Four Seasons. (Haydée, Maud, Claire and Chloe are certainly powerful presences in the films they appear in, but we see them through the male characters' eyes.) A brief scene takes place at the Buttes-Chaumont park, the location for the central section of Rohmer's later The Aviator's Wife. There's a more obscure film connection: she is the brother or the late Steve Tesich, who won an Oscar for Breaking Away and who also wrote Four Friends, on which Nadja served as an assistant. She is now an academic and writer. (DVD Times)
