pabz’s review published on Letterboxd:
Excellent. Features some of the most brilliant, telling conversations in all of movie-land.
Lots of guys on the dating scene in their early 20s will probably relate to Gaspard's indecision, his clumsiness with women, and his miscalculations dealing with the opposite sex - especially when juggling amorous candidates. And Rohmer knows girls are master psychologists, able to work out exactly what a guy's thinking even before he speaks, sometimes even before he realizes what he was thinking himself!
This film could have had the tagline: "Women - always two steps ahead". Gaspard's the pathetic sucker lurking inside every man out there on the dating scene.
(It's quite obvious to me now that Linklater is heavily into Rohmer.)
