First Love (Erste Liebe in German) is a 1970 film, written, directed, and starred in by Austrian director Maximilian Schell. It is an adaptation of Ivan Turgenev's homonymous novella starring Schell, Dominique Sanda, and John Moulder-Brown.
The film is quite obscure, but in 1971, it was nominated for Best Foreign Language Film in the Academy Awards, losing to Vittorio de Sica's Il Giardino dei Finzi-Contini, which ironically starred Sanda. It won the 1971 German Film Award. In the United Kingdom, it is frequently shown on Actionmax on Sky Digital.
