During a long train ride heading the north of Japan, a young man addresses an older woman in front of him. At first she doesn't respond, but he finally gets her into a conversation when he offers her lunch. Thus begins Saito Koichi's famous romantic thriller, Le Rendezvous. The woman turns out to be a murderer on parole, whist the man a runaway accused of assault and robbery. As it happens, the two soon fall in love. The woman asks the man to wait two years, for then she will be released from jail. But unbeknown to her, he is arrested as soon as they part each other……
A sensuous film with stylish photography and a magnificent performance by Kishi Keiko , Le Rendezvous easily makes one recall the works of the French New Wave filmmakers, perhaps a Jean-Pierre Melville film directed by Claude Lelouch. In short, a gem in the truest sense of the word.
