What A Tale of Winter Is About

Félicie and Charles fall in love on a summer holiday, then lose each other because of a mix-up over her address. Five years on she is raising their daughter in a cold Christmas Paris, drifting between the hairdresser Maxence and the bookish Loïc, unable to settle on either. Rohmer's winter entry in his Four Seasons cycle refuses to treat her stubbornness as foolishness: she is simply holding a place open. The scene where she weeps at a Shakespeare performance carries the whole argument of the film.
