Jean, a married 40-year-old failed director, and his lover, Catherine, engage in a circular series of spectacular blow-ups and tentative reunions—their mutual desire a fire that burns them again and again. Tired of his possessiveness and violent temperament, Catherine wants to break up.
Drawing comparisons to John Cassavetes, yet still utterly unique, the irascible French auteur Maurice Pialat makes volatile dramas about prickly and tumultuous human emotions. Take this portrait of an on-again, off-again affair, which is both a shrewd challenge but nevertheless rewarding.
