Audience Member A somber look at the elderly, enhanced in no small part by the performances of two French cinema legends. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Un grand classique avec 2 géants du cinéma français !!! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Disturbing and sad. This is the story of an old couple that can't stand each other and do not speak since the lady killed the man's cat... by jealousy. Gabin and Signoret played a very realistic torn couple. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
