Le Blé en herbe (English title: The Game of Love) is a 1954 French film by Claude Autant-Lara based on the 1923 novel by French novelist Colette. The film stars Edwige Feuillère, Pierre-Michel Beck (as Philippe), Nicole Berger (as Vinca Ferret), Robert Berri and Louis de Funès. It is black and white with a monaural soundtrack.

Synopsis

Phil a seize ans et Vinca quinze. Ils passent, comme chaque année, leurs vacances sur une plage bretonne, dans une maison que partagent leurs familles respectives. Ils sont comme frère et sœur mais cet été leur relation devient autre chose, sans qu'ils en aient encore vraiment conscience. Cependant, Phil fait la connaissance de l'élégante M Dalleray, trente ans de plus que lui et passant les vacances seule sur la côte où elle a une maison. Elle invite le tout jeune homme à y entrer un moment, elle l'incite ensuite à y revenir. On la voit attendrie, émue par la fraîcheur charmante de ce jeune homme en fleur. Phil, flatté par l'attention de cette femme belle et raffinée mais qui a l'âge de sa mère, se laisse séduire et lui rend bientôt en cachette des visites nocturnes... que Vinca ne tarde pas à découvrir et à lui reprocher.

The film is narrated by Charlotte Flax, a 15-year-old girl living in Oklahoma with her glamorous but eccentric mother, Rachel (whom she calls "Mrs. Flax"), and 9-year-old sister, Kate, who calls her by her given name. The narration begins in early fall 1963, just as Rachel's latest fling with her married employer ends and she decides to relocate once again. This time, they move to a new home near a convent in the small town of Eastport, Massachusetts. Charlotte has an obsession with Catholicism and idolizes the nuns living in the convent. She is always reminded by Rachel that they are Jewish. Kate, on the other hand, loves oceans and swimming. She apparently learned to do so when she was a baby, allowing her to win many competitions.
