Seventeen-year-old Saoirse has finished with exams and is facing a
long hot summer before uni. She plans to party, get drunk, watch
horror movies and forget all her troubles by kissing girls. Ever

angry, dealing with the hole left in her family by her sick
mother's absence. Worse, Dad drops a bombshell: he's remarrying at
the end of the summer. Enter the scene: Ruby, who might just be the
prettiest girl Saoirse's ever seen. A romcom fan and a believer in
true love, Ruby challenges cynical Saoirse to try a summer romance
with the serious parts left out, just like in the movies. But what
happens when the falling in love montage ends?

1990s, providing detailed analyses of 22 major landmarks in French
cinema. Embracing classic thrillers such as Renoir's "Le Crime de
Monsieur Lange", popular comedies like "Les Vacances de Monsieur
Hulot" , or New Wave masterpieces like Godard's "A Bout de
Souffle", contributors employ a variety of methods of textual
analysis to investigate the different ways in which these and other
films textually inscribe and rework a variety of other cultural and
historical texts. Approaching from a variety of disciplines -
history, literary studies, semiotics, psychoanalysis - contributors
examine films within the context of French film and literature,
Hollywood, and the profound changes in French society taking place
through the twentieth century. This revised second edition
includes: new studies of controversial classics such as Jean-Pierre
Melville's "Le Samourai" and Betrand Blier's "Les Valseuses";
