i have just ordered "french postcards" from amazon.com. (a VHS version is the only thing i could find.) i am looking forward to seeing it for the first time. the reason i am curious about the film is that Valérie Quennessen. the reason i got curious is that i recently saw (for the first time in 25 years) "summer lovers." that movie was ALMOST a very good character study--it couldn't seem to decide whether it want to be as such, or a soft-porn erotic movie. anyway, i did a quick internet search on valerie and was kind of stunned to learn that she died in a car crash at age 31 in 1989. very sad. i also was enticed by the fact that after "summer lovers," she all but bagged Hollywood in favor of a family life. (i would like to know if she ever married and/or had children.) i respect the fact that she had just starred in a hit movie and then tossed it all away for a better purpose. anyone with some details on her life, please post them.
