I think that was the best movie ever. I saw it in French in the 70's and enjoyed every second of it. I was a child then but have not been able to get it out of my head lately. I remember an excellent story line, which kept me captivated throughout the entire movie. The actors really got into their characters and kept viewers on the edge of their seats the entire length of the movie. I don't remember exact details, but I remember enough to make me want to add it to my collection of classic foreign language movies. I have been looking to purchase the DVD (or VHS) (in French) online with no success. If anyone knows of a venue, please post it.
