Directed by: Eric Rohmer
L’ami de mon amie is the final part of Rohmer’s series Comédies et proverbes. The proverb in question is ‘My friend’s friends are my friends’, although perhaps a more apt proverb would be ‘Oh, what a tangled web we weave’! This quiet, wry drama of romance between a group of young Parisians is emblematic of Rohmer’s style and preoccupations. Blanche and Lea meet at the swimming pool and strike up a casual friendship. Lea is a tall, statuesque brunette, outwardly self-assured and man-hungry, involved in a relationship with Fabien. Blanche, rather more demure and lacking in self-confidence, is infatuated with the charming Alexandre. The film pits these characters against each other in a succession of meetings and observes how the friendships stand up to conflicting loyalties.
