Mes Petites Amoureuses (My Little Loves)
1974, NR, 123 min. Directed by Jean Eustache. Starring Martin Loeb, Ingrid Caven, Pierre Edelman.
REVIEWED By Marjorie Baumgarten, Wed., April 25, 2001
This semi-autobiographical study provides a portrait of adolescence in which a boy on the verge of adulthood learns about the realities of love and work. Living with his mother and her lover in a small flat in the south of France, Eustache's alter ego must work instead of going to school and gropes the girls in an awkward attempt to discover the mysteries of sex. The movie was also filmed by the great Nestor Almendros.
