Two friends, Daniel and Adrien, are invited to vacation at a mutual friends house by the sea in SaintTropez while Rodolphe is away. When they arrive they discover another friend of Rodolphes is also staying there, a very young woman named Hayde who turns up, often very late at night, with a different lover each time they see her. The solitary vacation each of the friends had envisioned for themselves is dashed on the rocks of Hayde whom they first resist but then cant resist and its not clear who is really in control of this game of collecting relationships.The film currently holds an 89 approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. On May 14, 2012 Roger Ebert added La Collectionneuse to his list of Great Movies. ........
