Pleasant trifle to do with a late-adolescent French orphan (Ken Higelin, a cross between young Monty Clift and young Jerry Lewis), his friendship with Raymond the Fat Farter (sound effects for authentication), his apprenticeship to a Jewish tailor (easy role for Jean Yanne), his romance with a winsome auto mechanic in a spotless blue jumpsuit (Florence Darel), his rise in the world of haute couture in the mid-1960s. The garish clothes are not as much fun as they mean to be -- as they try too hard to be -- but the camerawork is not without touches of stylishness. Directed by Remy Duchemin. (1994) — Duncan Shepherd
