Movie Reviews of Les Destinees

Movie Review: not a 5 but close
Summary: 4 Stars

Beautifully shot and directed romance with a beautiful heroine. Emmanuelle Beart. Slow paced, graceful, and scenic. This movie is truly a work of art but a great movie no. Dialogue is vapid, trying to be insightful. I did enjoy it greatly anyway like a piece of museum art.

Summary of Les Destinees

Studio: Genius Products Inc Release Date: 08/12/2003 Run time: 174 minutes Rating: Nr
This sumptuous film follows the story of a marriage caught in the turmoil of social change. The beautiful Emmanuelle B?art portrays Pauline, wife of the heir to a prosperous porcelain industry. In 1900, when first she meets her future husband, Jean Barnery (Charles Berling), he's a Protestant minister unhappily married to another woman (Isabelle Huppert). After a scandalous divorce, Jean and Pauline marry and move to Switzerland, where they live a briefly idyllic existence, but Jean is drawn back into the family business, which is rocked by the rise of unions, the brutality of World War I, and the economic depression that followed. Throughout, Pauline fights to retain some semblance of their original love. Les Destin?es manages to be both intimate and epic, every scene built from carefully observed details in setting and psychology. In the end, the portrait of an enduring marriage is richly affecting. --Bret Fetzer
