Philippe de Broca
Starring: Anouk Aimée, Jean-Pierre Cassel, Geneviève Cluny, Anne Tonietti, Palau Synopsis
The man who is nimbly scampering over the rooftops of Paris, pursued by an angry
husband, is Edouard Berlon, an oversexed joker who just cannot help
loving women and being loved in return. He finds sanctuary
at the home of his brother Guillaume, an artist who often employs
Edouard as a model, along with most of the other members of his
family. The latter include: the philosophical Uncle
Théodore; Pilou, Guillaume’s sweet-natured wife; and Olga, the
family maid. Edouard’s carefree Casanova existence could have
carried on in this vein forever had he not met Hélène
Laroche, a beautiful young woman who is unhappily married to a dull
industrialist. At first, Hélène believes that her
amorous adventure with Edouard will be a short-lived affair that will
do no harm to anyone. How wrong she is...
