Man Who Love Women (1977) - Truffaut

A very amusing comedy-drama about an obsessed skirt-chaser who literally dies chasing women. As per title, the male lead loves woman and is not a "Lady killer' interested in his selfish gratification. While a comedy (IMO) the last part is more melancholy as he realizes that quantity is no substitute for quality.

I was surprised how seriously some took the film and how relatively obscure it is. To me, its an obvious satire of womanizing. Summary: A well written comedy. But while I enjoyed it, most would rate it much lower. Rating ***1/2
