Alain Delon and Sydne Rome (as Creezy) star in this film. You also have Jeanne Moreau in a supporting role. Because of this stellar cast, you'd expect more from this film. Instead, however, the film is amazingly unmoving and uninteresting.
Delon plays a famous French politician who has aspirations of a cabinet appointment. He has a mistress named 'Creezy' and they have a VERY active sex life (and you see a lot of the gorgeous Rome). She poses a bit of a problem, however, as Delon is so devoted to his work that he really doesn't have time for her. Another problem is that his image is of a family man--but he really doesn't have time for them either. Again and again throughout the film, they make love and then fight because he doesn't have time to stay. Eventually, she's had enough.
The main problem with the movie is that it's hard to like the characters. Delon is a cold and selfish man. Creezy is sleeping with a married man. And, to top it all off, their characters really have no depth at all and you know very, very little about them--especially Creezy. Other than loving him, looking hot and being a model, you really know very little more about her. All in all a curiously unengaging film--one that left me feeling quite flat.
