This movie can actually be excused for being a bad film, given that it came out in 1969. just about nothing in this film is worth talking about or worth watching. this French Canadian film was produced and shot in 1965 but remained unreleased until 1969 due to its sensitive subject matter.
Andre, a young man, does not work but gets full financial support from his parents. He has a huge crush on a man named Georges. He works with Andre's sister Lucille, who also has a crush on Georges, even though she is married. It's time for Georges to take vacation and Andres goes with him, despite being constantly rebuked, insulted and pushed back for following him by Georges. But Andres is only too happy to sponsor and be with Georges at this time even though he constantly is being insulted. But when Georges ends up having sex with women and even find a rich girl to be his wife, André is driven to attempt both suicide and murder because of his inability to secure Georges' affections.
This film is bad by every mean. There is never an explanation as to why Andre is so obsessed with Georges. Has Georges ever reciprocated his advances or love, or is it just one man's infatuation. And, why the obsession in the first place? He is not good looking, I didn't think he was charming at all, in fact he was abusive and insulting. I mean, why would any sane person (Andre and his sister) would find him attractive and want to be wit him, despite being rejected every single time. Whatever happened to self-respect. The ending of the film was also very random. Yes, Andre is looking at maybe killing him because he can't see Georges with another person, but then why did Georges kill himself? It's just so random. The film is a complete waste of time. (0.5/10)
