Going
Places (1974)
aka: Les Valseuses
DIRECTOR: Bertrand Blier
CAST: Gerard Depardieu; Patrick Dewaere; Miou-Miou; Jeanne Moreau; Brigitte Fossey
SYNOPSIS
Two
whimsical, aimless thugs harass and assault women, steal, murder and alternately
charm, fight or sprint their way out of trouble. They take whatever the bourgeois
characters value: whether it's cars, peace of mind, or daughters. Marie-Ange,
a jaded, passive hairdresser -written - from IMDB
Plot Summary
NOTE
One
of Isabelle's early roles, appeared only in the last 5 minutes
of the film, but hilarious
and impressive. She played a 16-year-old virgin who determined to leave her bourgeois
parents and insisted being deflowered by Depardieu-Deware-Miou
three-gang. The
film was the top question smash of the year in France, and broke through
three future stars: Gerard Departieu, Patrick Deware and Miou-Miou. - FORUM
QUOTE
Isabelle
Huppert
"My Life as Actress",
by Thierry Klifa Studio
Magazine, N° 181, September, 2002 I
worked with three actors who were already very famous. I didn't always feel good
of my look. I was even very timid then, and, there, even if weren't 5, but a little
bit like among the club of five! I was a relevant piece. I didn't form the part
of the band, but it's a good memory... At that time, I was very far away from
the universe of Blier, of this liberty, derision, and all the film carried.
AWARD
Top
question smash in 1974 in France.
TRIVIA
The film let isabelle known by Bertrand Blier,
and 9 years later, he would make another three-gang film, in which Isabelle would
be in the center: My Bestfriend's Girl. She would reunite Miou Miou in Diane Kurys's
"Enter Nous", to play another passive
character, once again, instigated by Miou's.
