Early new wave effort from Rohmer, which was the first of his six moral tales. It concerns a young man who approaches a girl in the street, but after several days without seeing her again, he becomes involved with the girl in the local bakery. Eventually, he has to choose between them when he arranges dates with them on the same day.
In the second of Rohmer's moral tales, he examines the relationship between two friends and a girl who at first appears easily exploited. It is a complex tale of feelings and misconceptions, acted out within the head of the main character, as part of Rohmer's attempt to more easily simulate the mindscape quality of literature within a film.

Moral Court is a nontraditional court show that is hosted by opinionated Larry Elder, and originally ran from 2000 to 2001. The program had the same concept as a legality court show however the cases were based on opinion based ethics and morality judged by Elder with the winner of the case leaving with a cash prize. The judge decides after hearing the case who is morally right and how much to award. If he finds one party to be merely wrong, he'll award a $500 cash prize. If he finds it to be a more serious moral problem, he terms it offensive, and awards a $1,000 cash prize. If he finds it to be extremely bad, he terms it outrageous, and awards the show's maximum judgment, a $2,000 cash prize. The judge could also dismiss the case if he finds both parties to be wrong. After every case on Moral Court, court reporter/interviewer Vivian Guzman would ask both parties a few questions and let them say their opinion on the outcome of the case. Out of all other court shows on television to this day, Moral Court was the only court show that dealt with ethics and morality rather than legality, hence why the parties were not referred to as the "Plaintiff" and "Defendant", but rather, the "Accuser" and the "Accused". The cases on the show would generally not be taken in a legal court. Moral Court received bad reviews and low ratings, resulting in the show not being renewed for a second season. The show was distributed by Warner Bros. Domestic Television Distribution and produced by Stu Billett Production Inc. The show was created by Stu Billett, who also co-created The People's Court.
