The second entry in Éric Rohmer's Six Moral Tales focuses on gender relations. The titular character is a delicate girl homed in on by a pair of men amid turmoil in French society caused by the Algerian War. "La carrière de Suzanne" ("Suzanne's Career" in English) is slow-moving, but that's probably appropriate, considering what sort of movie it is.
I did like "The Bakery Girl of Monceau" better, just since it seems like that one had more substance. I don't know if Rohmer had a specific style, so I can't judge this one against most of his movies. I can say that it offers solid criticism of the era's gender relations. It's not the most important movie ever, but still worth seeing (certainly more so than the latest movie where Tom Cruise narrowly escapes all danger).
