In his review in The New York Times, Vincent Canby wrote, "Cavalier may have created a practically perfect screen equivalent of the novelist's prose style." In addition to praising the performances by Deneuve and Piccoli, Canby writes: Upon its theatrical release, La Chamade received generally positive reviews. įilming took place in April 1968 and was interrupted by riots in Paris. La Chamade was filmed on location in Paris and Nice. Eventually, she returns to the good-hearted businessman who has patiently waited for her. In the aftermath, her feelings for the younger Antoine fade. But Charles helps her through her crisis by funding her abortion – against the wishes of Antoine, who nevertheless accepts, even though he planned on moving out of his bachelor flat, the three of them into a soulless concrete block, money being short. Soon she becomes pregnant with his child. He finds her a menial job in a publishing firm, but she can not or will not hold it down. When she meets a charming young man her own age, Antoine, she falls in love. Twenty-five-year-old Lucile is the beautiful mistress to Charles, a wealthy, kind-hearted businessman who provides for all her material needs, but for whom she has no true love. It stars Catherine Deneuve and Michel Piccoli. La Chamade (also titled Heartbeat in English) is a 1968 romantic drama film directed by Alain Cavalier from a screenplay he co-wrote with Françoise Sagan, based on Sagan's 1965 novel of the same name.
