Director Bertrand Blier's Les Valseuses features Gerard Depardieu and Patrick Dewaere as a pair of sociopaths wending their way across France. Though Depardieu is the more dominant of the two, both men are equally culpable in their disregard for common decency. They are particularly rough on women, even the like-minded Miou-Miou, whom they both love in their own way. Jeanne Moreau has a brief bit as an ex-convict who sleeps with both Depardieu and Dewaere. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Bertrand Blier's shocking comedy Going Places comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.66:1. English and French soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital Mono. English subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials are limited to a theatrical trailer. Anchor Bay deserves credit for releasing this classic French film, even though it is short on extras and only contains mono sound. This disc is worthwhile for anyone with an interest in French film. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide
