The Earrings Of Madame De…
''The Earrings of Madame de...'' ( ) is a 1953 romantic drama film directed by Max Ophüls from a screenplay he co-wrote with Marcel Achard and Annette Wademant, based on the 1951 novel ''Madame de...'' by Louise Lévêque de Vilmorin. The film is considered a masterpiece of 1950s French cinema. Andrew Sarris called it "the most perfect film ever made". Ophüls said the story's construction attracted him, stating "there is always the same axis around which the action continually turns like a carousel. A tiny, scarcely visible axis: a pair of earrings". The film's different titles reflect on the fact that the surname of the Madame in question – the same as that of her husband's – is never heard nor seen onscreen. The few times in the film when it might be revealed, it is eluded by noise or a camera trick. Plot Louise (Danielle Darrieux) is an aristocratic woman of ''Belle Époque'' Paris, married to André (Charles Boyer), both a count and a high-ranking French army ...
