Ils

Ils is a 1970 French comedy-drama directed by Jean-Daniel Simon from a screenplay by Jean-Pierre Petrolacci, adapting André Hardellet's novel Le Seuil du jardin for the screen. Alexandra Stewart and Henri Crémieux take the leading parts, with veteran French performers Charles Vanel and Michel Duchaussoy featured in supporting roles.

Running close to one hundred minutes, the picture fits within the era's steady stream of French literary adaptations, mixing a gentle dramatic core with lighter comic touches throughout.
