It's an affectionate tribute to the beauty of Parisian youth with a keen eye for the friction caused when whimsical idealism meets the messy demands of interpersonal reality.

Time and again, it is shockingly beautiful, and I can think of nothing in recent films so ravishing as his strange romantic vision of the city, the river, the softly lighted tourist boats in the night.
Roger Greenspun, New York Times

In the secular turn Bresson reveals an unexpected sense of humor and worldly irony.
Dave Kehr, Chicago Reader
Fresh
The film is rescued from occasional moments of pretension by the gentle eroticism and absolute conviction with which it is made.
