Murmur of the Heart

At a Catholic school in Dijon, France, 1954, tardy student Laurent (Benoit Ferreux) is sent to confession with likely lecherous priest Father Henry (Michel Lonsdale), who offers intimate advice, in director Louis Malle’s Murmur Of The Heart, 1971.

In director Louis Malle’s opening, Dijon, 1954, jazz nut Laurent “Renzo” (Benoit Ferreux) and a friend have been collecting for French war veterans, then home with his father, brothers and mother (Daniel Gelin, Marc Winocourt, Fabien Ferreux, Lea Massari), in Murmur Of The Heart, 1971.

Bawdy business as studious teen Laurent “Renzo” (Benoit Ferreux) is assaulted by his brothers (Marc Winoucourt, Fabien Ferreux), one of them wearing their mother’s dress, in director Louis Malle’s partly autobiographical coming-of-age tale, Murmur Of The Heart, 1954.
