Les Grandes Manoeuvres

Director Rene Clair opens his first color film, shooting on location in historic Bolougne, his soldier hero Armand (Gerard Philipe) running into immediate trouble, having forgotten his date with Gisele (Simone Valere), in The Grand Maneuver, 1955, with Michele Morgan and Brigitte Bardot.

At a charity event in a French garrison town, Armand (Gerard Philip), with civilian pal (Jacques Francois), gets a first look at Lucie (Brigitte Bardot), then meets Marie-Louise (Michele Morgan), whom he's vowed to seduce via random selection, in Rene Clair's The Grand Maneuver, 1955.
