Rendez-vous (1985) is the sixth film directed by André Téchiné, the first he wrote with Olivier Assayas, and the first time Téchiné cast Juliette Binoche. This director continued his trend of making films about failed romances, per Barocco and Hotel America, and expanded his style to create something similar to Andrzej Żuławski’s films.
