In Rohmer's films, encounters are very easy to happen, and then they meet and talk, one or two vague feelings go back and forth, and then either usher in a natural union, or a light wind blows the clouds away, and there is no false noise. Joy, and no hysterical despair.

Betty, the protagonist of the female collector In fact, she is a girl with no intentions. Her most charming attraction lies in her nonchalance, casual interaction, and no idea where true love is. Her inattention became her temptation.

The Collector quotes

  • Haydée: I found a definition for Haydée. She's a collector! Haydée, if you sleep around without premeditation you are the lowest of the low. The atrocious ingenue. But, if you collect in a consistent way, with obstinacy, it's a plot, things are entirely different.

    Daniel: Yes, but she collects badly.

    Haydée: I'm not a collector.

    Adrien: Don't say that. It's your only quality.

    Haydée: You're completely wrong. I'm searching. I'm searching to find something.

  • Haydée: I exploit. It can be anything, the main thing is for me to get something.
