Wikipedia article
'Les Mauvais Coups' ('Naked Autumn') is a 1961 French psychological drama under the direction of Franois Leterrier. It tells the story of the tragic demise of a 10-year marriage.
The austere screenplay is based on a Roger Vailland novel.
Though by no means a 'nouvelle vague' style work, the opening credits over a dismal landscape with ominous music have a Chabrolesque touch. It was the first film directed by Leterrier, best known for his leading role in 'A Man Escaped', the 1956 movie by Robert Bresson.
