What it’s about. A featurette directed by French actress Edwige Shaki where Eric Rohmer worked as a technical adviser, THE CURVE is a movie that has the inimitable Rohmer stamp. Talky, it makes its fifteen minutes seem a little longer. However, it's a playful little thing, where an art student meets his grandfather, a sculptor, and both exchange ideas about that part of the woman that is so alluring -- the curve of her back.

Who’s in it. The Curve stars Edwige Shaki as Eva, François Rauscher as Roman and André Del Debbio as Le sculpteur.

How it landed. With an audience score of 5.1/10, The Curve has proved divisive with audiences.
