Synopsis

This early new wave film by Rohmer is the first of his six moral tales. It follows a young man who meets a girl on the street, but after not seeing her again for several days, he becomes involved with another girl who works at a local bakery. Ultimately, he must choose between the two when he arranges to meet them on the same day.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 10

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
