"Les Grandes Manoeuvres"
1955
Directed by Rene Clair

Brigitte Bardot, Gerard Philipe and Michele Morgan are featured in this star-studded, ironic French comedy about the power of love over pride. Set in a pre-WWI garrison town, a handsome soldier (Philipe) wagers that he can seduce any woman he pleases before leaving for summer maneuvers. The first color feature from master director Rene Clair. Unrated. French with English subtitles.
106 minutes.
