  Les Valseuses is the controversial groundbreaking classic that shot Gerard Depardieu to stardom and also marked the arrival of a major new talent in director Bertrand Blier. One of the key French films of the seventies. Two aimless drifters spend their days wandering the French countryside looking for trouble and women. Their hedonistic spree of petty crime and debauchery usually results in them fighting or running their way out of trouble. The delinquent pair are joined by a supporting array of characters played by Jeanne Moreau Miou-Miou and Isabelle Huppert in one of her earliest roles.
