This should be pretty complete

There are spoilers, it is recommended to watch the original film for your own aftertaste

I don't know

(Actually said that I wrote too short to publish...

I have to paste my own mark on it, everyone can take a look at it, if you can, answer my two questions, thank you)

Not too much to give ten stars! Ah ah ah, to see such a good movie in my lifetime! "I get it, but I don't quite get it" hahaha Eric Rohmer classics! Classic Talks This is only the third movie I've watched Rohmer, and I don't dare to jump to conclusions, but it seems that these are all "high-energy" at the end of the movie ①The Catholic female college student is the mistress of Maud's ex-husband. I just guessed at this point, but I guessed right haha. But why are the female college students nervous when they face Vital, do they know each other? Does Vital know that the female college student is the mistress of Maud's ex-husband? The film doesn't seem to have any hints... I didn't understand this ② and after the bookstore scene, the two had a dialogue in the snow, and the college student easily said to the male protagonist "I love you" I also don't understand "Christian spirit". It has the same identity with the film, which can be said to be the church of the twentieth century." --Eric Rohmer's Six Moral Stories (3)

My Night at Maud's quotes

  • Maud: You do shock me.

    Jean-Louis: So you've said.

    Maud: You're the most outrageous person I've met. Religion has always left me cold. I'm neither for nor against it. But people like you prevent me from taking it seriously. All that really concerns you is your respectability. Staying in a woman's room after midnight is dreadful. It would never occur to you to stay because I'm lonely. To establish a slightly less conventional relationship even if we should never meet again. This I find stupid - very stupid and not very Christian.

    Jean-Louis: It's nothing to do with religion. I just thought you might be tired.

    Maud: Do you still think so?

  • Maud: What I don't like about you is that you always dodge the issue. You don't face up to things. A shamefaced Christian combined with a shamefaced Don Juan.
