What happens
Le Beau Serge (French pronunciation: [lə bo sɛʁʒ], literal English translation: "Handsome Serge") is a 1958 French film directed by Claude Chabrol. It has been cited as the first product of the Nouvelle Vague, or French New Wave, film movement. The film is often compared with Chabrol's subsequent film Les Cousins, which also stars Gérard Blain and Jean-Claude Brialy. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
