Synopsis: A
young Paris housewife, Séverine,
grows bored with her stable husband. When
she learns of the presence of a high-class
brothel in her neighborhood, she quietly
goes to work there -- but only during the
day, until five o'clock in the afternoon.
This sublime 1967 film is one of the
latter-day masterpieces of the
Spanish-born director Luis Buñuel,
whose career forms one of the greatest and
boldest arcs in cinema. By the time of
Belle de Jour, Buñuel had become
almost completely deadpan in his style,
which not only leaves the motivation of
Séverine a mystery (despite a few
flashbacks to degradations of her youth),
but also casts the entire plot in doubt.
An old surrealist from the 1920s (when his
first classic, Un Chien Andalou, was made
in collaboration with Salvador Dali),
Buñuel suggests that what we see
may be real, or simply Séverine's
imagination.
|
|
|
Because he
was the least pretentious of directors,
Buñuel keeps his material playful,
wicked, yet cutting. As Séverine,
the impossibly lovely Catherine Deneuve
uses her cool demeanor to great effect --
she never breaks her deadpan, either. In
1995, after having been out of official
circulation for years, Belle de Jour was
re-released in America and became an
unexpected art-house hit. --
