Three friends face mid-life crises. Paul is a writer who’s blocked. François has lost his ideals and practices medicine for the money; his wife grows distant, even hostile. The charming Vincent, everyone’s favorite, faces bankruptcy, his mistress leaves him, and his wife wants a divorce.

Starring the crème de la crème of French cinema, Claude Sautet’s timeless mega hit is another crown jewel among the director’s popular collaborations with his muse Romy Schneider. This beautiful study of long-term relationships profoundly uncovers the emotional angst of the midlife crisis.
