Emma Bovary

Madame Bovary (1991) Movies

Posted by Someonelse at May 29, 2013

In nineteenth-century France, the romantic daughter of a country squire (Emma Rouault) marries a dull country doctor (Charles Bovary). To escape boredom, she throws herself into love affairs with a suave local landowner (Rodolphe Boulanger) and a law student (Leon Dupuis), and runs up ruinous debts. This film version closely follows Flaubert's novel and includes most of the famous scenes, such as the wedding, the ball, the agricultural fair, the operation on the clubfoot, and the opera in Rouen.

Madame Bovary (1991) Movies

Posted by Someonelse at April 18, 2011

Gustav Flaubert's celebrated novel of obsessive ardour undergoes a dazzling retrofit for the screen, courtesy of French neurosis-master Claude Chabrol. The basic story (a woman's selfish quest for happiness ends up obliterating all she holds dear) may be the same but Chabrol's talent for biting through to the dark marrow of passion makes this a startling experience, even for people familiar with the source material or the numerous other cinematic adaptations. Casting Isabelle Huppert in the title role (she's at least a decade older than the standard conception of this wilfully tragic heroine) was a potentially risky gambit that paid off big; underneath her glorious surface lies a startling foundation of brilliant ice. The same can be said about this stunning film. Viewers intrigued by this potent actress-director pairing may also want to check out The Story of Women and the wonderful La Ceremonie. The film is in French with English subtitles.

Posted by at Nov. 16, 2024

Viziata, egoista, capricciosa, indolente, arrivista. Oppure: paladina del Desiderio, la pulsione fondamentale che muove ogni essere umano, che in lei è totalizzante al punto da guidare ogni sua azione, dalle relazioni amorose al suicidio finale. Di tutte le eroine della letteratura poche sono in grado di dividere il parere dei lettori quanto Emma Bovary. Antonella Lattanzi, una delle più grandi scrittrici italiane contemporanee, si è innamorata di Emma. Più di una volta, a ogni rilettura del capolavoro di Flaubert, in periodi diversi, e sempre cruciali, della sua vita. Madame Bovary è il libro del suo cuore, ed Emma per lei quasi un'ossessione.

Emma Bovary is bored by her country doctor husband and gives in to the affections of several rich suitors as well as the temptation of living beyond her husband's means. This version of the second greatest novel ever written (according to a 2007 poll), Gustave Flaubert's Madame Bovary focuses on the adulterous affairs of the title character and more than any other version to date, on her intoxicating beauty. This is no wonder when you realize Emma Bovary is played by the stunning Edwige Fenech at the start of her long and illustrious career.

On this piano recital, pianist David Kadouch explores the Les musiques de Madame Bovary. "The relationship between music and literature has always stimulated me. The memories and images that one can have of a narrative can inhabit and magnify the notes of a composer. I wanted to imagine the music that Emma Bovary might have listened to during her short life, evoking the often-forgotten women composers of Flaubert's time. With this question hanging in the air: could Emma Bovary's fate, her suicide, have been avoided, if these female creators had had the notoriety they deserved?"
