Madame Bovary (1934 Film)
''Madame Bovary'' is a 1934 French historical film, historical drama film directed by Jean Renoir, starring Max Dearly, Valentine Tessier and Pierre Renoir, and adapted from Gustave Flaubert's 1857 novel ''Madame Bovary''. Plot summary Cast Critical reception On the film's original release, ''Variety (magazine), Variety'' wrote that in interpreting the novel for film, "Renoir has done an exceptionally commendable job. Regardless of its snail-like pace, the production, combines a straight simple narrative with a fine sense of background authenticity and dramatic understanding." The reviewer doubted however, that box office appeal would extend much beyond readers of the book, "despite the better than average quality of the film."
