A vibrant and picturesque depiction of friendship among young women, the endless pleasures of summer break, and the playfulness as well as the complications of budding relationships. Jacques Rozier’s Du Cote D'Orouet is a superb little-known French gem from the ‘70s that anybody who has the slightest interest in New Wave cinema should see. It exhibits the trappings of an Eric Rohmer picture with its bucolic setting and marvelous color composition, but without the philosophical verbiage that peppers the scripts of these types of films, which often irks many viewers, me included.
The story follows three good friends from Paris—Joelle, Kareen, and Caroline—who spend their late summer vacation at a quiet seaside village in Saint-Gils. The interesting word Orouet from the title is actually the name of a nearby town and it becomes a sort of in-joke because of how silly it sounds. The dialogue and the acting are incredibly natural; it’s almost like a documentary. On paper this may sound plot-less, but visually there’s so much things going on. They small talk while cleaning up their quaint beach house, they go eat chichi fregis at a nearby cafe, they sunbathe as they listen to music, they dance and then swim, they have fun. And then, rounding off the cast, comes Gilbert, Joelle’s office mate, who suddenly appears unannounced and unwanted. What are the girls to do?
The subtle tension between Joelle and Gilbert is probably the most plot-heavy element in the story, but everything else is about them enjoying their vacation. The movie went by like a breeze in spite of the lengthy runtime. Scene after scene, it’s perfect; I love the look of it all. Rozier has an eye for hues. Colors are superbly integrated, blending nicely with the surroundings. There’s not a dull shot. Indoor scenes inside the beach house show the girls’ bright clothing offsetting the wallpaper. When outside, Rozier makes good use of the striking palette of the sea and the sunset. He films using a handheld camera, which is constantly in a static position and it looks great. Also worth mentioning are the chic-looking, ever-evolving intertitles (chapter breaks) displaying what day and time it is.
Du Cote D'Orouet is a lovely movie. It’s simple and pure, clear of any pretension. If you’re tired of all the ramblings of the Godards and the Rivettes of that decade, here’s a wonderful alternative to mollify your feelings about the French New Wave.
