The Game Is Over is a 1966 drama film directed by Roger Vadim and starring Jane Fonda, Peter McEnery, and Michel Piccoli. The film is a modern-day adaptation of the 1871-72 novel La Curée by Émile Zola. Two different versions of the film were made and released, one in English, the other in French.

Production

The movie was one of a series Vadim made based on a classic text. He described the book as "about high society in Paris with a rather serious background, since it likens dogs turning on a deer in a hunt to people."

"I am making no attempt to give the wide sociological picture that Zola did", added Vadim. "I am not a naturalist or a moralist. The Zola characters were hardly everyday. There was something fantastic about them, though they have their counterparts today, as I hope to show."

Vadim and Jane Fonda married immediately prior to making the film.

It was only the second film performance of Tina Aumont.

The movie was shot in both English and French versions. Fonda acted in French and English. "I said it was hard enough to shoot anything once", she said. "But doing it twice, I found, seemed perfectly natural.
