User Comments
La Leçon Particulière (a.k.a. Tender Moment) is the story of a young student (Renaud Verley) with a pretty blond girlfriend (Katia Christina) who falls for an older married woman (Natalie Delon, at her seductive best), played out against the background of Paris and a very modern French Ski resort.  The guest star who plays the husband is Robert Hossein, one of France's finest actors of stage and screen.  Beautifully produced by Francis Cosne with music by Francis Lai (of Un homme et une femme fame), it has a haunting theme (Where did our green summer go?) and typifies the romantic films of the mid-sixties, shown against the events of May ’68 in Paris, while England was swinging to the sights and sounds of Carnaby Street, mini skirts and The Beatles.  The film won the Medaille d'Or du Cinéma Français for that year.
