Demoiselles De Rochefort, Les

Overall, the film races from one set scene to another never apportioning the emotional or dramatic weight to any of them

DVD Extras: The transfer is taken from the 1996 restoration by Demy's widow, Agnes Varda (who has a walk-on as a nun) and is of excellent quality although it is unfortunate that Aztec's release does not include Varda's documentary about the film --The Young Girls Turn 25. Comes with 4 trailers/teasers for Demy films including, besides, The Young Girls of Rochefort, Les Parapluies De Cherbourg, Donkey’s Skin and A Slightly Pregnant Man.
