Les mauvaises Rencontres

cast: Anouk Aimée, Jean-Claude Pascal

year: 1955

colour: yes

certificate: U

director: Alexandre Astruc

runtime: 84

Alexandre Astruc was a critic best remembered today for his seminal article 'Le caméra stylo' (1949), arguing for a cinema which expresses ideas as fluidly as a writer does with a pen. Although not quite living up to its director's ambitions, Les Mauvaises rencontres is nevertheless an appealing and subtle film which shows in flashback a woman coming to terms with a series of mainly mistaken life-choices.
