Elena and Her Men (1956) – J. Renoir
Delirious chaos
surrounds Ingrid Bergman as she uses her erotic wiles to convince a popular
general to let people power support him in a coup d'etat. Renoir echoes his own
Rules of the Game (although this is a trifle or a truffle compared to that).
Every scene seems to contain people crashing into each other and the state of
madness reminded me of Preston Sturges. But in
the end, this is definitely French and true love wins out over all.
