They dance, they tell each other little things about themselves and a sudden, healthy, sensual affection is born. They dance because they're thrown into each other's company by an embarrassing coincidence: Her husband and his wife have slipped out of the party and are no doubt up to no good at that very moment. Just now, he is a dance instructor.Īnd so they dance the first time they meet, at the wedding of her mother and his uncle. He has a charmingly simple philosophy about work: He changes jobs every three years to stay out of a rut. She is blond and fresh and with that confident radiance women don't approach until their 30s. Her husband cheats on her, mostly out of habit.
She looks a little like Catherine Deneuve, and he a little like Peter Falk (if Deneuve and Falk were real people - if you see what I mean.) His wife's greatest thrill in life is taking a sleep cure. The couple first (because getting to know them is one of the movie's greatest joys): She is played by Marie-Christine Barrault and he by Victor Lanoux.
