Product Description
The most frankly sensual movie in memory, (Los Angeles Times) Pascale Ferran s intelligent, deeply moving, and exquisitely photographed Lady
Chatterley brings D.H. Lawrence s most celebrated and notorious literary work to the screen in a way that feels bracingly fresh, vital and modern
(New York Times). Robbed of intimacy by her blueblood husband s war injuries, Constance Chatterley (Marina Hands The Barbarian Invasions) longs for the emotional fulfillment and physical passion that her marriage lacks. When she espies the gamekeeper Parkin (Jean-Louis Coullo ch) unselfconsciously bathing, stripped to the waist amidst the beauty of nature, she experiences a sexual awakening unlike anything she has ever dared to desire. Though separated by the boundaries of social convention, rough-hewn Parkin and high-bred Lady Chatterley unite in a love that is simultaneously innocent and erotic, a spiritual connection that transcends personal inhibitions and class prejudices.
Review
Every frame of the film seems alive ...with a sensuality that it both wild and intelligent..." --A.O. Scott, THE NEW YORK TIMES
