La Collectionneuse
by Eric Rohmer (1967)
- Film selection — Haydée Touitou
One of the best summer movies of all time. Adrien and Daniel had only one plan for the summer: succeeding in doing absolutely nothing. They’re even debating wether or not reading a book would be doing too much. Men collector Haydée joins in and catches the two womanizers at their own game. She, whom they thought was just a stupid cunt, turns out to be a brillant theoretician of her freedom as a woman. She has him undressing her. He can take off his woolen sweater himself.
