Negative Positive
Title: Boring, Slow, pre-feminist movement
Review: I made my way through about 40 minutes of this film and finally had to turn it off. The "love" stories are absurd. The "lovers" scarcely even speak to one another. The point of view is mostly from the male lovers' perspective, and they look at these women as sweet little charming ornaments. I don't know what a modern viewer could possibly take from this film, other than to be thankful that most men today now see women as friends and companions, perfectly equal in moral, spiritual, and intellectual capacity, and vice versa.For a depiction of the "wild woman" who rolls through town and scandalizes the populace with her sensuous cooking skills, I prefer Chocolat!
