A TALE OF AUTUMN
France 1998
Director: Eric Rohmer
"Romand is a forty-something widow with two grown children who manages her own vineyard in the Rhone Valley. The contentedly married, city-dwelling Riviere decides that her best friend's life won't be complete until she finds a man, and sets out to land one for her. A marvelous Rohmer roundelay of mistaken identities and misread motives ensues as Riviere finds herself falling for the handsome salesman she's recruited for her friend, and Romand feels drawn to the Don Juanish professor her son's girlfriend has exhumed for her. The autumnal atmosphere culminates in an outdoor wedding, a swirling celebration that seems to promise ultimate happiness for all Rohmer's characters, past and future."—Dave Kehr.
