Rohmer examines the emotional complexity of the situation with great care, never letting the film descend into any sort of exploitation. Nor does it go off in typical, expected directions. He's occasionally playful in the structure of his storytelling, such as a sequence in which the main character slips into unfussy fantasy to approach a multitude of women on the street. Even when playing with the boundaries of his fiction, Rohmer always adheres to sound emotional truths.

Lesser Billy Wilder is still good

Billy Wilder always had a penchant for sexual innuendo, and the subject matter here allows him to run rampant. The script is very clever and provocative, with Cooper, Hepburn, and Chevalier all delivering fine performances. Wilder's direction is typically crisp and elegant, and he manages to evoke genuine romance from a plot founded entirely in sex. It is filmed in lustrous black & white, with a lovely score to accentuate its French tone.

Poignant story can't overcome the great age gap between Cooper and Hepburn.

Playful, whimsical, romantic, all that jazz. It's a romantic comedy by Billy Wilder, what else would you expect? The script is a lot of fun, Hepburn and Cooper are completely charming, the photography is graceful and wonderfully captures the romantic atmosphere of the film.

Raunchy, yet innocent little film about a young girl who corners a play boy and sleeps with him every afternoon! Like I said, raunchy little film for 1957! Audrey was extremely beautiful in this film.

"Fascinating"... A relaxing and lovely movie. And Audrey just great as she usually was...

I can't believe Audrey ended up married to that asshole... I hate him! Nah, I just don't like stories full of clichés, gloryfing Don Giovannis, mocking of fat, cheated husbands, etc etc etc... But well, it has Billy Wilder's trademark class all over the place, at least. But this is not my kind of movie, anyway.
