(1972) Chloe in the Afternoon/ L'amour, l'après-midi (In French with English subtitles) ADULT DRAMA

The correct English translation of "L'amour, l'après-midi" is supposed to be "Love in the Afternoon", but because producers did not want it to be confused with the 1957 movie starring Gary Cooper and Audrey Hepburn that was the reason for the title change of "Chloe in the Afternoon". The last of Eric Rohmer's cycle of "Six Moral Tales". That has Bernard Verley as Frédéric, although happy with his job and marriage, he cannot seem to ponder about Chloe (Zouzou) someone to whom had decided to come back into his life that can be defined as an old flame during their teenage years. As the movie progresses, Frederic begins to bond with Chloe much more than the current wife he lives with, and he expresses that notion which may or may not lead to anything more. Written and directed by Eric Rohmer.

I define it as an adult drama is solely because of the mature discussions themselves that can be boring to the average underage person who watches this, not because there is any physical offensive material.
