The Young Girls of Rochefort

1967 · 2h 6m · Romance, Comedy, Drama

Watch it tonight if you're in the mood for pure romantic escapism—Jacques Demy's "The Young Girls of Rochefort" is a visually intoxicating musical-comedy about beautiful people, missed connections, and the ache of longing, featuring Catherine Deneuve and Françoise Dorléac at peak charm. It's a masterpiece of style over substance that asks nothing of you except to surrender to its pastel-colored fantasy and Catherine's face for 124 minutes.

Plot

In the seaside town of Rochefort, twin sisters Delphine and Solange dream of love and artistic fulfillment beyond their quiet lives. As sailors, artists, musicians, and chance visitors pass through town during a weekend fair, a web of near-misses and romantic longing brings ideal partners tantalizingly close—without their realizing it.

Director: Jacques Demy
