Our take

Éric Rohmer appropriately begins his Tales of the Four Seasons with the rejuvenation of springtime, exploring a budding, unexpected friendship between two women and, later, something of a love triangle. With endearing, charming characters and all of the leisure and pleasures of Rohmer’s cinema.
