LES CHOSES DE LA VIE (The Things of Life) 
Directed by Claude Sautet, 1970, PG, 1h29, Courtesy of Rialto Pictures
With Romy Schneider, Michel Piccoli, Léa Massari 

Based on the acclaimed novel by Paul Guimard, Les Choses de la vie begins in the aftermath of a violent car crash along a rural motorway. As the man, Pierre, lies in a semi-conscious stupor, his life flashes before his eyes—specifically, his complex entanglement with two quite different women: his dutiful, long-suffering wife and his adoring, free-spirited lover.
