Raoul randomly enlists Dewaere as Stephane to be a second husband to Solange, thinking that she needs another man to make her happy. She spends quite a few scenes topless and is often treated like property. He and his wife can't have a baby and she is depressed, but it seems that there is more to her depression than becoming a mother. The video case advertised a menage a trois, but the relationship dramatized in this French/Belgium production involves more than trois. Eventually, the trio end up working at a summer boys camp, which leads to meeting a precocious lad (he's about 14) who manages to revive Solange more than the adult men could. How very French, no? Solange's spirits don't lift much as her new relationship grows, but the two men become friends in laboring together to nurture her.

He essentially engineers their coupling, and Solange passively goes along with the swap. So, as the film opens, he casually selects a stranger in a restaurant (Patrick Dewaere, who previously co-starred with Depardieu in Blier's 'Going Places') to become Solange's lover. Raoul is so passionately in love that he puts Solange's happiness above his own, and he decides that maybe a change in partners will cure her doldrums. Solange has turned eternally glum and listless, and spends most of her time aimlessly knitting (she often does this topless, which is a welcome bonus). Raoul (Gerard Depardieu, back in his attractive heyday) is married to Solange (Carole Laure, who apparently is better known as a singer than an actress).

However, it doesn't seem to get circulated much today, which is probably because it has a controversial plot involving consensual sex with a minor. This is highly watchable as foreign-language films go, and is quite funny at times. Bertrand Blier's 'Get Out Your Handkerchiefs' (winner of 1978's Best Foreign Film Oscar) is unavoidably classified as a 'sex comedy,' but it's not nearly as crass as that label's connotation.
