I rather like this Claude Chabrol film which I understand there seem to be not very many people who do like it. It is also not at all like Chabrol's usual films and this may be a problem. There is another, Quiet Days in Clichy (1970) by the Danish Jens Jorgen Thorsen that people also not like and at the time, as soon as the rather rude stuff began people ran out of the cinema. Chabrol's film in 1990 is very much more lovely and beautiful but people not liked it any better. I suppose that Henry Miller not all loved his books and even if they do then they maybe don't like the films.
