This ambitious French-language retelling of the 1837 Quebec rebellion against British rule caused a lot of controversy in Canada when it first came out, as it depicts the English as unreasonable oppressors who (among other things) desecrated a Catholic church during the fighting. The story centers around a man who is trying to keep clear of the fighting; though he has cause to dislike the British, he avoids joining the rebels. During his flight to the border, however, the effects of the conflict reach him again and again. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide
This mildly erotic story concerns a couple who return to their honeymoon cottage after a rocky five-year marriage. The wife has erotic dreams about a stranger she meets on the beach. Her husband glowers while he waits for her relatives to leave before the love-making can begin. Flashbacks recall the couple's past which is plagued by lack of communication and the feeling of being alone in the marriage. Although the couple clearly has problems, the exact nature of their mutual discontent is inapparent ~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide
