The second in Eric Rohmer's series of "Comedies and  Proverbs," Le beau mariage tells the cautionary tale of 25-year-old Sabine (Béatrice Romand, in a continuation of the younger role she played in Claire's Knee), who impulsively decides it is time to get married. She starts by ditching her married boyfriend and doggedly pursuing Edmond (André Dussollier), a middle-aged lawyer whom she barely knows. As the young woman shuttles between Le Mans and Paris, chattering relentlessly with her best friend (Arielle Dombasle) about the love of her life, the film turns into a mortifying examination of self-delusion. Funny, touching, and beautifully acted, this is Rohmer at his witty best.
