Get Out Your Handkerchiefs

(1978)Directed by Bertrand Blier108 minRomance, Comedy, Drama
“The Delicious Anarchy of Love and Devotion”

Solange (Carole Laure) won't eat, won't laugh, and nothing her husband Raoul (Gérard Depardieu) tries will lift her out of a gloom neither of them can explain. So he picks out a lover for her, a stranger named Stéphane (Patrick Dewaere), and watches to see whether the cure takes. Bertrand Blier films the three of them in plain, grainy rooms, in a style that treats the oddest decisions as ordinary.
