![Pauline at the Beach [DVD]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41FY1ZC2JFL.jpg)
Product Description Come take a leisurely, relaxing trip to the sun-soaked, sandy beaches of Brittany in this bewitchingly funny yet profoundly wise comedy (Vogue) from acclaimed French writer/director Eric Rohmer. Winner* for Best Direction at the Berlin Film Festival, Pauline at the Beach is delightful a film of summer sunlight, bare skin and escalating amorous misunderstandings (Newsweek). Young and beautiful Pauline is spending the end of the summer with her older and sexuallyalluring cousin Marion on the stunning Atlantic coast of France. And it isn't long before three eligible men attempt to entice them both into romance. But head games, deceit and lies soon interfere with the amorous mood, threatening to spoil this idyllic playground and Pauline's innocent views of love. *1983 desertcart.com In the lighthearted third film in Eric Rohmer's "Comedies and Proverbs" series, 15-year-old Pauline (Amanda Langlet) gets an eye-opening lesson in the games grown-ups play on a two-week summer vacation with her recently divorced and ready-for-fun older cousin Marion (Arielle Dombasle, every inch the vivacious blonde goddess). Smitten young Pascal Greggory turns aggressive with jealousy when the smooth, seductive, happily shallow writer Féodor Atkine wins the fancy of the "perfect" Marion while continuing to fool around on the side. The tangled affairs, mistaken identities, and white lies are the stuff of sex farce, but Rohmer is more interested in the folly of love and the impulsive, illogical workings of human nature. He deftly crafts a gentle and sexy little human comedy that ends with Pauline learning perhaps the right lessons after all. --Sean Axmaker Review: Great film, great DVD - Great film, clean DVD. No issues. Review: Good introduction to Rohmer - This has a great teenage female lead, clear-sighted and in contrast with three Rohmer males -- unpleasant, weak, self-important, one almost evil. It's a beautiful film to look at. As in all Rohmer movies, the male characters love to hear themselves talk and some people don't like that. This has a lot in common with Claire's Knee, another wonderful movie, perhaps even better, and available with a number of other Rohmer films on Hulu Plus.

Good introduction to Rohmer
This has a great teenage female lead, clear-sighted and in contrast with three Rohmer males -- unpleasant, weak, self-important, one almost evil. It's a beautiful film to look at. As in all Rohmer movies, the male characters love to hear themselves talk and some people don't like that. This has a lot in common with Claire's Knee, another wonderful movie, perhaps even better, and available with a number of other Rohmer films on Hulu Plus.

Pauline Plus Fun
One of my favorite past-times is watching foreign films, especially French films. This past weekend while waiting for the late play-off game, I ran across "Pauline At The Beach". It was on HBO or ShowTime, which is really not important. The movie is filmed somewhere in France along a wonderful beach. The characters are all well played, the story line is well written and I think it was a fun movie. If you do not like nudity or sub-titles, can't stand the French, hate wine, well, better you should choose another movie. If you like movies with a little depth, check it out.

Blu-ray is worth the extra $$$
I originally saw this film in 1982 (inspired to go see it by Siskel & Ebert's TV review), and it instantly became one of my most favorite films. Rohmer drew me into the film and made me feel as if I was in the room with the characters listening to their philosophical ideas about love & life. If you're interesting in watching the movie, I strongly suggest that you get the Blu-ray version. It's full HD (1080p -- very clear & sharp) and, although the soundtrack is still mono, it has been improved (& the sub-titles are clearer, as well). The Blu-ray version is a huge improvement over the other versions that I have owned (laserdisc & regular DVD).

more worldly cousin still young but full of contradictory ideas about love and romance
Rohmer has perfected his type of movie: a well crafted study that poses almost as a home movie. His moral point of view is there for you to discover, but never didactic or heavy handed. The movie is exactly that, Pauline at the beach. She is a young woman on the verge of adulthood who has been left in the care of her older, more worldly cousin still young but full of contradictory ideas about love and romance. Pauline is quite resilient and is at first influenced to some degree by her cousin and her male friends. Through the course of the story we see Pauline become skeptical and then rejecting this world of selfishness and trivial intrigue.

Insights on love from the Normandy coast
This movie was beautifully shot and had a unique storyline. Set on the Normandy coast of France, Pauline a la Plage follows a young girl, Pauline, and her cousin, Marion, on a beach holiday. The characters Pauline encounters have different ideas of what it means to love and relate to others. Pauline observes and critiques these visions (without being too judgmental) and also forms her own ideas of how to love.

" is excellent, clear
I imagine that in most video purchases the customer is sold on the film or movie and has decided to buy it, what's really important to know is the quality of the recording. This version of "Pauline..." is excellent, clear, sharp images and rich color. So if you like the movie you wont be disappointed in this print or recording of it.

Personnellement, j'aime beaucoup ce film d'Eric Rohmer. Arielle Dombasle est entourée de plusieurs comédiens de qualité. Les dialogues sont réalistes, ce qui contribue à la réussite de ce film que je recommande. Attention, ce n'est pas un film d'action, c'est très beau.
