Vivre sa vie

Vivre sa vie (1962)

Michel Poiccard, an irresponsible sociopath and small-time thief, steals a car and impulsively murders the motorcycle policeman who pursues him. Now wanted by the authorities, he renews his relationship with Patricia Franchini, a hip American girl studying journalism at the Sorbonne, whom he had met in Nice a few weeks earlier. Before leaving Paris, he plans to collect a debt from an underworld acquaintance and expects her to accompany him on his planned getaway to Italy. Even with his face in the local papers and media, Poiccard seems oblivious to the dragnet that is slowly closing around him as he recklessly pursues his love of American movies and libidinous interest in the beautiful American.—duke1029

Sometimes, solemn but somehow empty vows of love and devotion are just not good enough, and a simple "I love you" may prove to be insufficient. As a result, tall, slender, graceful exotic dancer Angela has set her sights on talking her unwilling lover Émile, into starting a family, but he seems absorbed with his other passion: cycling. However, Angela wants a child. Could Alfred Lubitsch, a handsome neighbour and Émile's bosom friend, lend a hand? What happens when a pressing demand turns into a misunderstanding, and love transforms into jealousy?—Nick Riganas

A Woman Is a Woman

A Woman Is a Woman (1961)

Besotted with cheap crime fiction, cinema, and popular culture, bored-to-death English language students Franz and Arthur love living in a dream world.

And when their romantic classmate tips them off about a mountain of cash stashed in an unlocked cabinet in Aunt Victoria's suburban Joinville-le-Pont house, it's game on. As the amateur criminals take an immediate interest in Odile's incidental mention, they devise a plan and iron out the details of an audacious robbery--just like in the movies. However, what happens if Arthur's uncle and all-powerful love stand in the way of the perfect heist?—Nick Riganas
