Quiet Days in Clichy (Danish: Stille dage i Clichy; also known as Not So Quiet Days), is a 1970 Danish film written and directed by Jens Jørgen Thorsen and starring Paul Valjean and Wayne Rodda.[1] Set in Paris, it features music by Country Joe McDonald and Ben Webster. Drawn from the semi-autobiographical 1956 novel by Henry Miller, updated from the 1930s to the 1960s, it gives reflections on and incidents in the lives of two young men sharing an apartment. The amount of nudity, sexual activity and crude language in the film has restricted its public showing in many countries.[citation needed]
