I truly wish that I could find this on DVD. I saw it in the '90s in a cinema ta brings in rare, art, foreign, and cult films. There are some depressing and confusing moments in the film that only help to emphasize the humanity in the themes it confronts. This is a different kind of love film that deals with the reality of human nature and who we are as people, and the acceptance of that which is not normal. The film deals with the realities of polyamory in ways that I've never seen in any film or piece of literature, and it is moving in a surprising way. Not like the over-the-top reality shows of the modern era, this is people as they really are and shows us that it's those we love that mater most, and how there really can be enough love to go around.
Will it be able, to see this film again. Does anybody know, where there might be a copy or a digital release or something? I remember, the Film impressed me very much, when i saw it in the late seventy's, it even gave a new direction to my ethics, if i can say so with my medium bad English and i would very much like to see it again for i.e. just control, if i was correctly impressed that time. It seemed like a revolution, the promise of the possibility of love to more than one with the solution for so many not loved people, that are not loved because love is so restricted. Also maybe the way out of the 68 free love dilemma, cause this way love stays still romantic.
I've seldom been so mad that I wasn't in Cleveland.

This is one of my very favorite films and unforgettable to me. I tend to like movies about unusual lifestyles that work well and pose the question(to me): "Why should we be stuck with the 'nuclear family' model as the ideal?" It expands the limits. The movie flowed, it was sweet, the characters were engaging and the story engrossing. This movie has a French or European sensibility and I doubt that it would have been made in America and certainly not in the year of its release 1977. I would love to own it. Other movies of a similar nature were "Jules et Jim" & "Dona Herlinda & Her Son"(Mexican). Any info on how to obtain a VHS or DVD would be greatly appreciated.
