The film tells the story of Charles from the countryside who comes to Paris to study. He shares apartment with his cousin Paul, who is partying all the time. Scene: alcohol mixed adults tobacco nontransgressive in company

2:07:36-2:11:33: alcohol This scene shows the first part of one of Paul's revelries. Everybody is smoking, drinking and flirting. Still it seems to be a quite exclusive atmosphere, as the guests are dressed well and the flat looks very go-go (at least for the 50ies). Discussion: The consumption will be seen relatively positive. It is a party and everybody seems to have fun. It gets a little bit out of hand, but still seems to be a rather normal party.
