Lady Chatterley
French writer and director Pascale Ferran transforms D.H. Lawrence's notorious and controversial book into a sensual film about a woman's sexual awakening from a woman's point of view. Ferran stays away from controversy that has plagued the novel and goes to the heart of the matter which is about characters trapped by circumstance. While Lady Chatterley loves her paralyzed husband, her life lacks intimacy. Without seeking a way to escape, she gradually falls in love with the gamekeeper of her husband's estate. All the characters are well developed thanks to Ferran's vision and the performances of actors that includes the radiant Marina Hands and Hippolyte Girardot as Lady and Lord Chatterley.
