Perhaps there\u2019s a bad omen: as she is losing her virginity to a man who is probably experienced, she grimaces, asking him to stop\u2014though perhaps she grew to like his embraces in time.<\/p>\n<p>And wouldn\u2019t you know that honeymoon periods end in 19th Century France as they do in America, because soon enough the viscount complains that his wife is spending too much on wood and on candles, but that\u2019s the good news. The bad news is that her loyal maid Rosalie (Nina Neurisse) has a baby and refuses to reveal the name of the father\u2014but we in the audience can figure that out immediately.\u00a0 Julien seems determined to spread his seed even to Countess Gilberte de Fourville (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/2016\/04\/05\/chocolat-movie-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Clotilde Hesme<\/a>), the wife of his friend Georges (Alain Beigel).\u00a0 In a typical American melodrama, guns and knives would be drawn and blood would flow.\u00a0 But director Briz\u00e9 is too restrained, too classy for that.<\/p>\n<p>Jeanne may have expected a year-long summer given the way her handsome husband would cherish her forever, and is closely attached to her own loving son, Paul de Lamare (Finnegan Oldfield), who serves by now as the only redeeming thing in her life.\u00a0 But when Paul exploits poor Jeanne, and when financial tsunamis intrude, the good life is long lost to the woman whose experiences are on exhibit.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from the director\u2019s admirable restraint illustrating a life that alternately promises and betrays, \u201cA Woman\u2019s Life\u201d could probably not have charmed an audience had the principal character been other than Judith Chemla.\u00a0 Closeups from the hand-held camera show her in virtually every stage of emotion, from the pain of her deflowering, to the joy in her love of a handsome aristocrat; from the promise of a life of easy leisure on the farms that she inherits from her father, to the disasters that appear to grow in intensity as though fate has a way of bullying people at vulnerable points in their lives.<\/p>\n<p>The film embraces the cynicism for which novelist Maupassant is known, a writer who near the end of his life attempted suicide, was sent to an institution, and whose death from syphilis was preceded by his writing an epitaph: \u201cI have coveted everything and taken pleasure in nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unrated.\u00a0 119 minutes.\u00a0 \u00a9 Harvey Karten, Member, New York Film Critics Online<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Comments, readers?\u00a0 Agree?
