L'important c'est d'aimer was the breakthrough movie in France for Polish filmmaker Andrzej Żuławski. It tells the story of a passionate love story between Nadine Chevalier, a B-List actress (Schneider) and Servais Mont, a photographer (Testi) in the violent and unforgiving French show biz.

In 1974, he coadapted and directed this movie, based on the novel by Christopher Frank La nuit américaine ( no relation with the François Truffaut movie). The success in France was such - it was featuring very popular actress Romy Schneider and French singer Jacques Dutronc - that it allowed Żuławski to come back to Poland.

Romy Schneider obtained the first César Award for Best Actress for this role.
