...personality. Bonnaire stars as the teen-age Suzanne in this doggedly unsentimental French film from Writer-Director Maurice Pialat. Suzanne's family has stayed together by corseting all hostilities. Then she discovers the power of her own erotic impulse. Overnight, Daddy's little girl is a slut in Mama's eyes, and the family falls into convulsions of jealousy and hatred.

"I believe clothes are living things," insists Claude Montana. Accordingly, his line of racy, kiked-up cycle-slut couture (a leather ensemble can go for as much as $3,000) is presented with some of the most elaborate and amusing theatrics in Paris.
