The Earrings

THE EARRINGS OF MADAME DE...
Series: 50 Years of Janus Films [44th NYFF Sidebar Sept 30 - Oct 26 2006]
Director: Max Ophüls, Release: 1953, Runtime: 105

Max Ophüls’s incomparable adaptation of Louise de Vilmorin’s novel about a Parisian noblewoman (Danielle Darrieux) who sells her earrings to pay a debt: every gesture, every glance, every evasion, and every advance counts in this breathtaking, ultimately tragic film, brilliantly acted by Darrieux, Charles Boyer as her husband, and Vittorio de Sica as her lover.

Co-production: France/Italy
