EL PLACER

Max Ophuls aporta su asombrosa destreza visual a este tríptico de cuentos de Guy de Maupassant acerca de los límites del placer espiritual y físico.

Brimming with the ironies of life, Max Ophüls’s meticulous adaptations of Guy de Maupassant’s short stories marks an avuncular transition in Jean Gabin’s star persona. Also starring Danielle Darrieux, the middle vignette of this witty literary triptych portrays sex work with astonishing sympathy.
