Beautiful film, black and white with a young Brigitte, excellent in her role as frivolous but threatened girl. Romance, drama, suspense and the special atmosphere of the courtroom are well mixed and make the whole fascinating. Clearly explained and as a film absolutely not demoderated. On the contrary, conditions such as now: dissatisfaction, rebelliousness and desire for independence in the youth, hypocrisy in the community...

This film pleasantly surprised me, although I didn't really know what to expect.
The narrative structure with the flashbacks (which gradually become longer as the film progresses) works well and the film remains fascinating, partly because the question of whether she is guilty of premeditated murder remains unanswered until the very end.
Bardot plays strong but her opponent also does well .
The court scenes are steeped in sexual morality, but that should come as no surprise given the spirit of the times.
