Title: Laclos meets Vadim
Review: What's not to like? It's irreverent, jazzy, a time-capsule, has a snowy Alpine setting, and features the most stunning screen duo of all time: Gerard Phillipe and Jeanne Moreau. Try as they might to be deviant, they remain as young & innocent (and classy) as the period the film so paradigmatically embodies. There's a good deal of Europe on display here: a world of holidays, conviviality (Gemuetlichkeit) and easy-going hedonism. And the film manages to be profound in spite of itself.It's not the best transfer, but it may be the best SD transfer it receives in region 1. So, it you are a fan of French cinema, of black & white films, or films about relationships, you owe it to yourself to watch "Les Liasons Dangereuses".
