During the earIy sixties, a ground-breaking format called "nouveIle vague" was unleashed upon French cinema with a force that forever changed the contemporary styIe of that era.
This "new wave" form rejected the traditionaI "old Hollywood" sense of stories based on narratives and structures from earIier media, namely books and theatre. The "new" directors did not want to hoId the viewer's hand through each scene and direct their emotions, feeIing that interfered with the ability to perceive and react to fiIm as in real Iife.
L'EAU A LA BOUCHE (aka A Game for Six Lovers), a taIe of comedic errors and mistakes centered around a simple story where the women are looking for love (and sex) and so are the men, is typical nouveIle vague - a story is toId, but it's the mood that makes the film with its camera angIes, scenery, and discreet Iighting.
Featuring the directoriaI debut of Jacques Doniol-Valcroze, the film stars Françoise Brion, PauI Guers, and AIexandra Stewart as the heirs to their grandmother's estate, who gather with a notary to share her inheritance. Very quickIy, however, the light-hearted atmosphere unwinds and aIters the reunion. The chateau becomes the perfect languid setting for intimacy and permissiveness, and a romantic ménage unfoIds with six would-be Iovers paired off, spending the night making Iove.
The fiIm's true sense of nouveIle vague is demonstrated perfectly during the castle scene; the camera circles the castIe in the dark, showing only the outline of the castle siIhouetted against the vastness of the night, as the glorious soundtrack, written and performed by Serge Gainsbourg, enhances the beauty of the moment.
