Love is blind..., 17 May 2000
7/10
Author: Eric Sayettat (sayettat@hotmail.com) from Paris, France

Well not entirely blind when one of the protagonists is Brigitte Bardot. She certainly was the cutest cutie of her times and Gabin was some kind of a man...

Yvette is foolish and gay, he is stern and reasonable, she is a thief and a good for nothing, he is hard working and honest (mind you , a lawyer...).

Not a masterpiece but a excellent piece of acting and a far from innocent movie.
