three years pass...

going in on his madame bovary as it's on mubi (but getting the sense from ilx that this may be a mistake)

chabrol maybe not the guy to be tackling this book lol (made with the highest French attention to le wrong detail)

reminding me a bit of one of ken russell's attempts to envision d.h.lawrence (that's not good)

(i mean the TV version of lady chatterley) (lol you can tell how much this film is gripping me)

I love Huppert but this adaptation passed me by.

His worst movie and the only one I saw in the theater

Every day each of us needs a reminder to not take things too seriously. This one comes from the set of Madame Bovary, courtesy of director Claude Chabrol & script supervisor Aurele Chabrol.

I snuck into a Parisian cinema without paying to see Madame Bovary, but remember very little about it. What I do remember is that there is a specific French word meaning "to sneak into a cinema without paying" but I can't remember what it is now.

Google informs me that it's 'resquiller'.

Ha, haven't heard that word in the decades since French class in college.

The Gate of Angels Laundromat (James Redd and the Blecchs), Sunday, 15 January 2023 02:27 (two years ago)

Not specific to cinema. It means sneaking in without paying anywhere (eg on public transport)

two months pass...

La Ceremonie is a really tasty adaptation of the source material (assuming the Ruth Rendell plays on the fears of well to do Tories) with a great cast: Huppert, Bonnaire, Bisset are all having fun! His best film, not that he's made many things I like.

It's fun.
