France

Feature Film

Original Title: L'ami de mon amie

Writer/Director: Eric Rohmer

Cinematographer: Bernard Lutic

Composer: Jean-Louis Valéro

Cast: Emmanuelle Chaulet, Sophie Renoir, Eric Viellard, François-Eric Gendron, Anne-Laure Meury

Set against a backdrop of suburban yuppiedom, this warm, witty, and perceptive film – the sixth and final instalment of Rohmer’s Comedies and Proverbs series; a talky, virtually plotless examination of the capricious nature of the romantic entanglements of five attractive twenty-something friends – is a delight from beginning to end.
