A dashing provocateur sows trouble with young couples in Les Nouveaux tricheurs (1987), a sordid French comedy of manners. Rémi Martin plays the unrepentant cad who disrupts the romantic attachments between idle, apathetic youths in Michael Schock's remake of a classic tale. Under Martin’s influence, venomous beauties Valerie Allain and Sophie Mahler cheat on their boy toys in careless fashion, noshing on baguettes in bed and riding topless in a convertible.
