The French Depression
I caught this film on TCM a few days ago. I've never read so many varied reviews. I guess it's a matter of taste.
One of the things I noticed right away is that Moreau's character is sexually harassed by practically every man she comes into contact with. It's strange to me since farm workers during the French Depression hated city people due to their own crisis which effected the peasants or farmers. France almost lost all of its farming during the 1930's.
I found that the men in the movie seemed angry which I guess you can atribute to the times.
All in all this movie is depressing. I also thought Moreau was too old to play the part of Celeste.
I wouldn't watch it again. I give it 4/10
