In 1962,the TV special that Francois Chalais wrote and directed which seemed rather somewhat autobiographical, making it even more quaint and touching, as it tells the story of a dog that brings a couple together and allows them to make love at the risk of never seeing each other again. The one hour dramatic and cinematic effort stars two over the title stars, Alain Delon and Elke Sommer as the couple, each winning us over by their remarkable talent. Elke even gets to sing a little German song, completely in keeping with her character's design. This is a beautifully told, at times somewhat awkward, but still quite endearing and entertaining. Very well done. Highly recommended rarity.
