The film by Claude Lelouch, which happened to catch my eye when I was looking for something easy to watch, is The Man I Like. Un homme qui me plaît, 1969, attracted me, besides the director, and the names of the main actors - Annie Girardot and Jean-Paul Belmondo, referred to the genre of dramatic comedy. Françoise is a French actress who came to shoot in America, Henri, also French, is a composer who writes the music for this film (the composer, by the way, was Francis Lay, so the music there is very good). Quite situationally between them there is first an affair, which both seem not to take seriously, but then the feelings become deeper, they can not part, spontaneously embark on a journey, so the film in this part is a road movie. He is a registered womanizer and a habitual liar, she, on the contrary, is a rather restrained person, both have families, which, of course, complicates the situation. When it suddenly seems that the situation is close to resolution, there comes an end, very faithfully reflecting the essence of both characters. The film, in general, is not bad, although, of course, it cannot be attributed to masterpieces.
