"Satirizes a diplomat's sexual temptations. On vacation without his fiancee, he flirts with a brash, charming nymphet, while harboring a secret, peculiar obsession for her stunning teenage sister."
"At the centre of the fifth moral tale is a diplomat soon to be married. Temptation is fragmented between several women, especially two schoolgirls, encountered while he is on summer vacation. The digression of his developing passion takes the form of an obsessive game he sets himself - to touch the knee of Claire, the more distant of the two. This fetish is intellectualised by him to the point of abstraction. While he has as little control over events as the other protagonists in the moral tales he is more self aware. But unlike other protagonists he is not the sole narator. The older woman, Aurora, a novelist, 'doubles' the narration in her diary. This is the moral tale where desire most clearly establishes the narrative disequilibrium, with love, in the person of the absent fiancee, placed outside the narrative."

"The fiance of a diplomat's daughter contemplates prenuptial unfaithfulness and is faced with the moment of truth when the attractive young Claire bares her knee on a ladder under a blooming cherry tree."
""Why would I tie myself to one woman if I were interested in others?" says Jerôme, even as he plans on marrying a diplomat's daughter by summer's end. Before then, Jerôme spends his July at a lakeside boardinghouse nursing crushes on the sixteen-year-old Laura and, more tantalizingly, Laura's long-legged, blonde stepsister, Claire. Baring her knee on a ladder under a blooming cherry tree, Claire unwittingly instigates Jerôme's moral crisis and creates both one of French cinema's most enduring moments and what has become the iconic image of Rohmer's Moral Tales."

"Eric Rohmer's brilliant and insightful comedy of a man's secret and peculiar obsession with a younger woman. When a diplomat is on vacation in the beautiful countryside without his fiancee, he is introduced to two young, teenage girls by an old friend. Although he insists he has put all of his romantic feelings behind him, the two girls prove to be difficult to ignore. Claire's Knee is the classic story of one man's battle with desire and temptation. Comedy. In French with English subtitles. (Fox Lorber, 1996)."
