About Love on the Ground
A playwright offers two actress friends the chance to appear in his new, unfinished play, which consists of only one female part.
Directed by Jacques Rivette, Love on the Ground leans on a strong ensemble — Jane Birkin, Geraldine Chaplin, André Dussollier — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1984.
