DVD Therese and Isabelle (1968) Essy Persson, Anna Gael, Radley Metzger dir

Description: 1968 romantic drama Therese and Isabelle starring Essy Persson, Anna Gaël, Barbara Laage and directed by Radley Metzger, based on the Violette Leduc novel. The Story: In the French countryside, an elegant woman pays a nostalgic visit to her old school where she remembers her first fiery and forbidden romance... the story of Therese and Isabelle. The tenderness of two lonely girls' erotic awakenings blossoms against the hothouse atmosphere of the oppressive school environment. Comment: Director Radley Metzger must be America's best director of European films (almost all his films had European settings). Shot it black and white, the film captures a simple story of a forbidden school-girl romance in a non-exploitive and respectful way. Metzger always worked from extremely detailed scripts, in this case loosely based upon the Violette Leduc novel of the same name. Together with good acting and very high standards of cinematography, this film is a cinema gem, not to be missed. The film in black and white is presented in 2.35:1 theatrical format with English audio. Per the label, the running time is 117 minutes.
