A Mess!
demunfallopferseinefrau2 September 2003
I only watched the movie because of the great cast: Romane Bohringer, Ute Lemper, and Clément Sibony. They all deliver good performances, and Lemper has some sexy moments, but the direction was virtually non-existent.

A messy collection of scenes, lavishly set, but utterly boring because you cannot find your way through the different plots. A pity!

a lovely adaptation of a masterpiece
lonesomedove_8013 March 2020
I have seen the film before reading the book , so I credit this adaptation for presenting me with this book which since have become one of my fav....Aurélien is a difficult and too big of a book to adapt and with the low budget I think theyve done reasonably well ...but its the actors and the brilliant soundtrack is what really makes this a little gem, Romane Bohringer seems to have been born to play Bérénice...the ending have been romanticized and changed from the book which is a good thing and a bad thing in the same time .

forget it and read the novel

"Aurelien" is a great novel, but I really wonder if the staff who worked on this movie read it before shooting. The actors seem to be completely lost in an ocean of absurd scenes, directed without any kind of inspiration. Just forget it and wait until a better adaptation, which Aragon deserve.
