Anecdotes
Demy's longtime collaborator, composer Michel Legrand, strongly opposed the movie's social themes and urged the director to not do the movie. He ended up not being associated with the movie at all, and even in the 2010s, he was still trashing the movie in interviews.

Gaffes

Beautifully overwrought

UNE CHAMBRE EN VILLE is much darker and harsher than Demy's more famous films from the 1960s, but it is no less stunning a piece of work. An operatic look at classicism and desire, its peopled by fascinating, layered characters who are sometimes openly unlikable. The music is not at all like Michel Legrand' jazzy, hummable tunes, but this is meant to work within the confines of this grand and melodramatic narrative.
