Reception A contemporary review in the Nouvel Observateur found the production deceiving, despite prestigious names in the cast. In 1977 Jean Dutourd found that the production was "the best thing television ha[d] shown us" and commented on the fact that, ironically, that fiction was based on the belief that mankind was inherently bad.
