La Souriante Madame Beudet

Streaming video - 1922

Considered one of Dulac’s most feminist films, it is also a crucial step in her continuing de-emphasis of traditional narrative structures in favor of visual association. This impressionist film offers a bleak portrait of marriage and its constraining effects on the woman, while vividly externalizing her dreams of liberation as only the cinematic medium can. Music by Judith Rosenberg.
