Mousy bank clerk Trintignant becomes an almost overnight success when placed under the plotting of hard-up novelist Cassel. Before long he's impressing all of Paris with his power over women and his ability to attain great wealth. This highly stylized film lacks much thematic content and
virtually wastes the talented cast. (In French; English subtitles.)
