I know what you might think -- at least those of you who know who Eric Rohmer is --, Rohmer and spy movie shouldn't be in the same sentence in a perfect cinephile world. Set on the eve of the 2nd world war, with geopolitics in the background, Rohmer's Triple Agent is however a fascinating genre exercise where the veteran new wave director injects his signature taste for dialogues and intimacy to create an intrigue mostly based on conversations between a husband and his wife. Released a couple of years ago in France, Triple Agent hasn't found any distribution in the U.S yet and was shown as part of the "films that got away" sidebar.
