Duos sur canapé

This is the one and only movie directed by Marc Camoletti whose work is just to film his own play ; given the awful results, it's a blessing he didn't do it again.

Almost all the action takes place in a luxury flat where a lawyer (Michel Galabru) brings his fiance (Lorraine Bracco ,debut ,as "Bubble")...Not to be outdone by him, his wife , a dentist,(Marina Vlady ) entertains a failed actor .Both newcomers are a nuisance to live with at home ,the former being often high on drugs ,the latter rehearsing his romantic parts with male partners .As the story progresses,it gets worse and worse ;to sit through this painful tomfoolery is a true ordeal.

I give an extra star for Marina Vlady whose beauty and dignity survive this farce ;why on earth did she have to get involved in that business?
