Andrew R @thegulo13 Aug 15 It’s a masterpiece of a romantic story that ends so abruptly but you can’t help feeling sorry. Tragic as it seems love is so simple yet it is also astonishing complicated between four different men loving one woman, only to find the ending of the story is one she deserves.

See more @igawel 11/12/2022 watched it given metacritics high rating. found the trailer interesting, where they marketed it as "france's response to "gone with the wind". I did find Arletty a good actress. but admittedly fell asleep during parts 1 and 2.

Very Dickensian in creating colourful and fairly one dimensional characters. They philosophise over love with an originality of prose that only the French romantics seem to be capable of bringing to the subject. Not so much a love triangle as a love hexagon, it's an enjoyable watch if not necessarily something I'll need to repeat watch. See more Read all reviews
