  Belle de jour (1967)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
"Belle de jour" is a day lily in French, a flower that blooms only by day, as Severine is available only during the afternoons.
'Belle De Jour' is a movie which requires multiple viewing to fully appreciate.
She eventually is employed in a brothel during the day under a pseudonym, while continuing to live a bourgeois life with her unsuspecting husband.

 Belle de jour (1967) - Luis Buñuel
Belle de jour (1967) - Luis Buñuel [Amazon.com]
By the time of Belle de jour, Buñuel had become almost completely deadpan in his style, which not only leaves the motivation of Séverine a mystery (despite a few flashbacks to degradations of her youth), but also casts the entire plot in doubt.
In 1995, after having been out of official circulation for years, Belle de Jour was re-released in America and became an unexpected art-house hit.

 Stomp Tokyo Video Reviews - Belle de Jour
Belle de Jour stars Catherine Deneuve as a bored housewife, Severine, with an adoring doctor husband who thinks the world of her.
At first there is an internal struggle between her sexual fascination, which made her come to the brothel in the first place, and her housewife sensibilities, which reject the morals of the things she is required to do as a prostitute.
Stylistically, Belle de Jour is a film that seems to be edited with the frustration of the audience in mind -- which may very well be the case, given that Bunuel is our director.

 Denton Record Chronicle | News for Denton County, Texas | Entertainment: Movies/In the Arthouses
Belle de Jour, often praised as Luis Buñuel's masterpiece, remains as exquisite and enigmatic as it did when first seen in 1967.
Also memorable are Pierre Clémenti, as one of Belle's most exacting clients; Geneviève Page as her businesslike madame, who scrutinizes Belle with more than professional interest and enjoys kissing her on the lips; Michel Piccoli, as a libertine acquaintance; and Jean Sorel, as the seemingly clueless husband.
Belle de Jour is a delicacy, a passionate and compassionate study of erotica.

 Belle De Jour
Severine's early fantasies are really classic schoolgirl daydreams (well, OK, this schoolgirl may have read de Sade) and it's hard not to giggle at the sight of elaborately costumed coachmen whipping our heroine while hubby, striking a Bogart-like pose, lights a cigarette (he does this a lot).
Her sexuality is awakened by the sometimes brutish clients, who soon discover that "she likes it rough," and she is ultimately caught up a relationship with a truly dangerous client (Pierre Clémenti) whose possessiveness threatens to destroy both her and her husband.
Bunuel presents both her and the film as a whole in an almost clinical manner, and is less interested in gaining our sympathy for the character than in presenting her as an object for intellectual observation.

 Belle De Jour - Movie Review
By day, she is "Belle de Jour" -- her new "stage name" at an exclusive Parisian brothel.
Buñuel weaves masterfully through scenes of Séverine's hum-drum existence with her cold husband, her surreal day job as a wanton prostitute, flashbacks to her childhood, and bizarre daydreams of her humiliation, bondage, rape, and torture.
Regardless, Belle De Jour tells a story that desperately needs to be heard and which is even more relevant today than when it was made 28 years ago.

 GreenCine | product main - Belle De Jour (1967)
Belle de jour dramatizes the collision between depravity and elegance, one of the favorite themes of director Luis Buñuel.
Thanks to a question of copyright and ownership, Belle de jour disappeared from view shortly after its 1967 release, not even resurfacing on videotape.

 DVD Times - Belle de Jour
The story of a young newlywed housewife who becomes a prostitute at a high-class brothel in order to enact those deepest sexual fantasies that her young husband is unable to fulfil, Buñuel found the novel rather melodramatic and flowery in its dreamy romanticism of a bourgeois woman’s inner life.
The Belle de Jour: 40th Anniversary Edition is released in the UK by Optimum Releasing.
I confess to being surprised that Belle de Jour still receives an 18 certificate when released on DVD in the UK, since there is little in the film in the way of violence, nudity or strong, suggestive language.

Aunque en la novela de Kessel, que inspiró la película, no aparecen ni maullidos ni gatos (y tampoco en «Belle de jour»), me hizo decir esta frase, que no estaba en absoluto prevista: «Señor Duque, ¿tengo que soltar los gatos?», e hizo responder a Marshall : «Váyase a paseo con sus gatos».
Y además de todo eso, siempre tenía al mismo director de fotografía, al mismo cámara, al mismo ingeniero de sonido..., y tenía siempre un equipo de actores al que era fiel.

 Museum of Hoaxes
The Belle de Jour weblog, which records the daily trials and tribulations of a London call girl, began attracting a lot of attention a couple of months ago.
As the London Times writes, "There is growing evidence that Belle may be a fictional character who has never been a prostitute." Dr. Dean Foster, who earlier unmasked the author of Primary Colors, analyzed Belle's writing and concluded that it was very similar to that of 33-year-old music journalist Sarah Champion (see thumbnail).
When I first came across the Belle de Jour site I suspected it might be a hoax just because Belle's life seemed a bit too exciting and glamorous.

When Belle de Jour was first released in 1967, CV was a lot younger, the world of film was less jaded, and the subject matter here was unquestionably titillating.
If the shock value of Belle de Jour has been mitigated, director Luis Bunuel's artistry has not.
Indeed, since we are no longer shocked by the film, or see its subject matter as the novelty it once was, we are better able to evaluate it in its own terms.

This sublime 1967 film is one of the latter-day masterpieces of the Spanish-born director Luis Buandntilde;uel, whose career forms one of the greatest and boldest arcs in cinema.
By the time of Belle de jour, Buandntilde;uel had become almost completely deadpan in his style, which not only leaves the motivation of Sandeacute;verine a mystery (despite a few flashbacks to degradations of her youth), but also casts the entire plot in doubt.
An old surrealist from the 1920s (when his first classic, Un chien andalou, was made in collaboration with Salvador Dali), Buandntilde;uel suggests that what we see may be real, or simply Sandeacute;verine's imagination.
