Set in Paris on the eve of World War II and sizzling with love, anger, and revenge, She Came to Stay explores the changes wrought in the soul of a woman and a city soon to fall. Although Fran¨oise considers her relationship with Pierre an open one, she falls prey to jealousy when the gamine Xavi¸re catches his attention. The moody young woman from the countryside pries her way between Fran¨oise and Pierre, playing up to each one and deviously pulling them apart, until the only way out of the triangle is destruction. |
