Confusing if you are not French
29 April 2007
I am an American movie lover and I was thrilled to see this movie available for streaming on the internet. However, as I am not French, I had no idea what was going on for at least 3/4 of the film. What I did understand was: "OK, so we've got Madame Beudet and Monsieur Beudet. They are not happily married because they have greatly different cultural interests..." That's about it.

This film does not actually have much going for it except for the fact that it is the first feminist cinema masterpiece. If you are interested in the history of film, you should probably see this, but if not you should watch something else (by the way, this is VERY obscure, not on DVD or VHS).

P.S. I think that Monsieur Beudet looks like that drunk general in Dances with Wolves when he has that gun to his head.
