If you loved Le Trou, try Casque d'Or
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 Casque d'Or is
In the polite suburbs of 1890s Paris the carpenter with a past and the gold-crowned girl from the wrong side of the track lock eyes across a dance floor. A slow waltz turns into a devotion that alarms everyone who profits from her. By morning they’ve rewritten the rules, not just the songs.
