One ugly wife


For a french actress, she is ugly. Just so plain. France's own version of Susan Sarandon.

For a French actress? Is there a rule somewhere stating that all French actresses must be knockouts? There are plenty of French actresses who are not particularly attractive, but if they're good we cherish them for their remarkable talents.

That said, I have never really liked Emmanuelle Devos. And not just because of her appearance.

So many movies, so little time...

I have seen many french movies, and never have I come across one as plain and bland looking as this one. Majority of French actresses I have seen are attractive. I dont know what other unattractive french actresses you are referring to so I think saying that there are plenty of french actresses are not attractive is an overstatement. Maybe two or three at the most. And this Emmanuelle takes the cake!

"""I have seen many french movies, and never have I come across one as plain and bland looking as this one. """

And here is the problem with small-minded people living in a fantasy world. One minute you're telling us she's "ugly" and the next minute you speak oof "plain" and "bland looking"

"Majority of French actresses I have seen are attractive."

A majority of French actresses? I don't know about that. Many lead actresses, in any country by the way, are way above average in looks, which is usually further compounded by heavy use of makeup, judicious camera angle, lighting and plastic surgery.

I do think Devos looks like an average woman, which does not make her ugly. Merely a perfectly alright human being.

It's really too bad that to you, plain = ugly.

Well, I think Susan Sarandon is very pretty, even for her age. That being said, the wife was very, very frumpy.

reply

Susan Sarandon very pretty?? Oh please! You may as well just say every woman in the world is pretty then. Eva Mendes is very pretty, Kate Beckinsale is very pretty. Thats what you call pretty. How does Susan Sarandon compare to these two? There is no comparison.

reply

Susan Sarandon has something better than bland geberic brauty: she is interesting to look at and that has served her well over a long career that most brautiful actresses don't have.

reply

i dont think it is sarandons face that appeals to people. there are two other reasons they like her.....

Thanks to the OP who found it necessary to point this out but if he was standing in a line near her at a grocery store Im betting she would be the one that his/all eyes were attracted to.

reply

I guess that would depend on where the grocery store was located. A grocery store in Sweden, Brazil, Venezuala, Argentina or Italy - she would not get noticed. Maybe a grocery store in small town America, she might stand out.

How typical of people to judge an actress by her appearance; I don't know where you guys live but 99% of the world looks ordinary, non-beauty queen or prince charming; Emmanuelle Devos' plain looks made her one of the most talented, innovative, and easy to identify with actresses of her generation. She is a fantastic actress, subtle, and natural..This is a movie, not a Disney piece, or some other Hollywood crap..

reply

I dont believe her looks are plain at all. Her features just may not be as perfectly symetrical as most women chosen for rolls in film. In the "real world" she still stands out as pretty god damned attractive

reply

Good God! She's an attractive woman. Not a raging beauty but lovely anyway. Also, no one has commented on the looks of her partner. Homely, sagging body, nowhere near attractive a man as she is a woman.

reply

"Good God! She's an attractive woman"

I agree!

reply

And let that be an end to it!

You, my friend (OP), are an idiot.

reply


He is.

She has such an intriguing beauty, but then again people have grown accustomed to faces in the US that look they have rounded off with sandpaper for the past year. That's gross.

reply

Usually complaints about Susan Sarandon invariably refer to her politics.They may think they are talking about how she looks, but it's a safe bet that their'Fox News/Rabid Republican' sensibility is overwhelmed.

Typical liberal a$$hat. Tries to bring politics into a TOTALLY unpolitical discussion. What a tool....

I don't love her.. She kicked me in the face!!

reply

I can't agree at all, I found her quite attractive.
