Claire's Knee

Engaged Jerome (Jean-Claude Brialy), now a regular guest at the Alpine home where his friend Aurora (Cornu) stays, is steering clear of the landlord's younger daughter (Beatrice Romand), but developing an interest in Claire (Laurence De Monaghan), in Eric Rohmer's Claire's Knee, 1970.

Writer Aurora (Cornu) has been trying to get her friend, soon-to-be-married diplomat Jerome (Jean-Claude Brialy) to flirt with her landlord's young daughter Laura (Beatrice Romand), for which he later reproaches her, vacationing in the French Alps in Eric Rohmer's Claire's Knee, 1970.

The title, denoting the film as the fifth in Eric Rohmer's partly un-released series, and the opening on Lake Annency in the French Alps, finds Jerome (Jean-Claude Brialy) reunited with Aurora (Cornu), then meeting her summer landlord (Michele Montel), in Claire's Knee, 1970.
