 Joseph Kessel - Belle de Jour - Schöne des Tages - Perlentaucher.de, Kultur und Literatur Online
Sohn Samuel Kessels, eines jüdischen Arztes aus Litauen, der seinen Doktor in Montpellier gemacht hatte, aber seinen Beruf dann in Argentinien ausübte.
Joseph Kessel verbrachte seine ersten Lebensjahre in Argentinien, um dann auf die andere Seite der Erde verschlagen zu werden, da seine Eltern nach Orenburg im Ural zogen, wo sie von 1905 bis 1908 wohnten, bevor sie wieder nach Frankreich gingen.
Anlass zum Lob sieht der mit "rox" zeichnende Rezensent vor allem in der Tatsache, dass mit der Neuauflage von Joseph Kessels Roman "Belle de Jour" die literarische Vorlage von Luis Bunuels bekannter Verfilmung - mit einer von "quälenden erotischen Träumen" gepeinigten Severine (alias Catherine Deneuve) - ins Gedächtnis zurückgerufen wird.

 Amazon.com: The Horsemen (2000) : Video   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
The film is based on Joseph Kessel's (1898 - 1979) novel, "Les Cavaliers," written following his travel throughout Afghanistan in the early 60's.
Kessel is, in the tradition of Saint-Exupery, Malraux, Pierre Mac Orlan, and Hemingway, an adventurer, journalist, globetrotter, and great writer, a man who tried to make the novel "the privileged expression" of the "lived" adventure.
This is one of only three movies I know of that are set in Afghanistan - the others being 'Caravans' (from James Michener's novel) and 'The Beast' (or "The Beast of War') about a Russian tank crew during their occupation.

The crown prince Rudolph is a constant thorn in the side of his father, the Emperor Franz Joseph.
He allies himself with political agitators in the hope of reforming his country and spends more time with his mistresses than he does with his wife Stephanie.
This is film’s least important fault: fictitious or not, the film comes nowhere near to capturing the full dramatic potential of a painfully tragic story.
