You might expect Claude Chabrol’s Blue Panther to be a lighthearted 1965 eurospy romp but it isn't. Chabrol is trying to deconstruct the genre and play other similar games. If that appeals to you you'll love the film. If not, you'll be bored.

La Ronde (AKA Circle of Love, 1964), a series of sexual encounters. Each character figures in two consecutive encounters with different people. Structurally clever, light and amusing. Jane Fonda's best movies were all made with Roger Vadim.

Next Monday I'm going to see at the cinema in Strasbourg, but I understand very little French.
Luckily, I discovered that it's being shown with subtitles in Switzerland, so I'll go there first on Saturday.
The (flat rate for local transport) is a nice invention 🙂

Roger Vadim's Love on a Pillow (1962) is a psycho-sexual melodrama starring Brigitte Bardot. It deals with freedom versus responsibility, free love versus marriage.

This is Bardot in a more serious complex role (moving away from her early romantic comedies) and she's superb. Great movie.

Marcel Carné's Hôtel du Nord (1938), a perfect example of 1930s French film noir (or poetic realism). A young couple decide to spend their last night on Earth in a cheap hotel in Paris.

A superb movie that works on both an intellectual and emotional level.
