Movie Reviews of Camille Claudel

Movie Review: Camille Claudel
Summary: 5 Stars

First saw this film in 1989 when it came out. Purchased this copy after the Detroit Institute of Arts Claudel/Rodin exhibit. Beautifully filmed. Poignant portrayal of Auguste Rodin and Camille Claudel's tumultuous relationship as artist and protege. Adjani and Depardieu, as well as everyone else give powerful performances. Film dwells more on the sensuality and subsequent madness of the relationship and doesn't focus on the fact that they eventually considered themselves equals in their art, how strongly they influenced each other and how much they actually worked together. Still a good buy and well worth multiple viewings.

Movie Review: Camille Claudel - a must see
Summary: 5 Stars

The story of Camille Claudel is a 'must see' for anyone interested in the role of women in the 19th century who are up against the power and status of men - matters still relevant in the 21st century - despite feminism. This movie is about family and personal relationships, patriarchial systems, how women were once labelled mentally ill (or driven to it) through the pursuit of exploring and demonstrating their creativity, talent and genius. After watching this movie the memory of Camille Claudel,her work and courage lives on and is much respected.

Movie Review: Merveilleux!
Summary: 5 Stars

I saw the movie when it first came out. I was then a high school student. We went to one of the most appropriate movie theaters for this movie. The movie theater was in the old European town of Galata (Istanbul). The theater was well over hundred years old and had an inverted half dome shape. I remember being very much touched with the sensuality of the movie. Years has passed and I still can not forget how bewitched I was by the realism of the movie. Both Isabelle Adjani and Gerard Depardieu were fabulous.

Movie Review: Great movie! I was thinking about it for DAYS!
Summary: 5 Stars

The true story about the French sculptor, Camille Claudel.

It is about how she became a sculptor in the late 1800s in France. She met August Rodin and began a very long affair. Their relationship ends and how her life turns down a completely different path.

This movie was so good, that I had to read the book from which this movie was based on.

Isabelle Adjani plays an excellent Camille Claudel! As does Gerard Depardieu in the role of Auguste Rodin.
