A sensuous, slow-burning cult thriller.
Lovers Marianne and Jean-Paul spend their vacation in a villa on the French Riviera near St-Tropez. Marianne invites her former lover, Harry, and his teenage daughter to stay. Tension rises between them, especially when Jean-Paul seduces Penelope. Jacques Deray’s languid thriller from 1969 is a tour de force of sexual longing and controlled suspense.
