If you loved French Cancan, try The Rules of the Game
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Jean Renoir, and they both carry the cozy, cult, devastating, foreign gem mood tags, and they sit in Comedy / Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to French Cancan, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Rules of the Game is
This is not a weekend so much as a hothouse where everyone’s manners are sharper than their morals. A marquis hosts a country house party where flirtations ricochet between guests and staff until envy turns lethal. The film gets closer to the chaos than the tragedy.
