Summer
1986, R, 98 min. Directed by Eric Rohmer. Starring Marie Riviere, Lisa Heredia.
REVIEWED By Marjorie Baumgarten, Fri., Oct. 19, 2001
Summer belongs to Rohmer's cycle of "Comedies and Proverbs." Improvised performances are the key to this story of a French secretary's pout over her ruined vacation.
