A Summer's Tale 1996
a good story about how young people overstate their morals and security in themselves. At first, Gaspard had that awkward and overly philosophical persona that he stuck to, but that slowly devolved as he met more women…. not rly feeling Solène or Léna 😬. I especially liked the scenes with Margot where they’d drive to some daisy field in the middle of nowhere and talk about their feelings or whatever. such a pretty setting
