Going Places

An explosively funny erotic farce. A revolutionary film. -Pauline Kael, The New Yorker

Jean-Claude (Gerard Depardieu, in the role that made him an overnight star) and Pierrot (Patrick Dewaere) are two crude drifters who travel the French countryside in pursuit of petty crimes and wanton sex. But when their abduction of a frigid young beautician (Miou-Miou) becomes an exercise in frustration, they find sordid solace in a sex-starved ex-convict (the legendary Jeanne Moreau). Can two lovable but amoral brutes survive an increasingly strange spree of love, pain, responsibility, car theft and nymphomania?

Isabelle Huppert co-stars in this groundbreaking and controversial comedy from writer/director Bertrand Blier that shocked and delighted audiences worldwide. Also known as Les Valseuses (The Testicles), Going Places has now been restored from original French negative materials.
