Berthe Morisot by Malika Bauwens5/27/2023 ![]() ![]() The film gave me the feeling that I was immersed in that time and that I could now visualize and sympathize with the world in which these paintings were created. For the first time, I was able to see the art in context. The dress, certainly, and the interiors, village streets, and countryside, but also the sounds, and most importantly, the light. In the end, the most valuable thing I took away from the film was the feeling of that late 19th c. That was fine with me, because I wasn't seeking those kinds of details. ![]() While the larger facts seemed accurate, i believe the dialogue and most plot points are imagined. Having been enamored of Morisot's paintings for many years, I welcomed the opportunity given by this film to know more about, and see Morisot in, her life. This was shown today as part of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts' annual French Film Festival. ![]()
