Answer

Paris Belongs to Us, Jacques Rivette's debut feature, faced numerous obstacles and delays before its eventual release in 1961. Originally titled "Le Quadrille des valses," the film's production was marked by financial constraints and creative differences with producers. Despite these challenges, Rivette persevered and the film went on to become a seminal work of the French New Wave, showcasing his signature long takes, improvisational style, and exploration of youthful disaffection.
