Violette (2013)


Violette Leduc, born a bastard at the beginning of last century, meets Simone de Beauvoir in the years after the war in St-Germain-des-Prés. Then begins an intense relationship between the two women that will last throughout their lives.

Strong period biodrama with an excellent ensemble, especially Emmanuelle Devos in the title role credibly portraying the troubled, but talented author.
