Aucun prix,ni récompenses pour ce film (au minimum pour la photo quoi !) scandaleux...la grande masse a préféré les deux immondices chantées et colorées qui ont suivi

Kara, are you a film maker or just a philosopher? What a precise and concise analysis of one of the greatest early Demy's works! I agree fully, and make your words mine. Your photography skill is evident (I'm a photographer too). Furthermore, the photography is one of the high spots of this film. Superb B&W rendition, together with expert scene lighting, camera, decors, everything. The zigzag mirrors scenes in the casino are a treat! Never been into gambling, but I know a little about addictions. It's always a sad story. I've met Demy in Rio de Janeiro some 30 yrs ago. We became friends, but unfortunately he died in 1990. I highly recommend Agnes Varda's films. Not by accident she was married to Jacques, and their son Mathieu Demy is a very good actor.(Aïe ! ben moi je trouve que Mathieu est franchement un acteur nullissime,mais je lui dois la restauration de LA BAIE DES ANGES)
