Top Critics Reviews

The charm of the film seems almost too easily won, but Renoir's real brilliance emerges in the way the light tone is subtly modulated into the profound sadness and regret of the conclusion.

Witty and sensuous, it's pure magic.

Along with The Postman segment from Satyajit Ray's Two Daughters, it is, I think, the greatest short film ever made.
