Details: Product Descriptionthe most cherished work from french master max ophuls (la ronde), the earrings of madame de . . . Is a profoundly emotional, cinematographically adventurous tale of deceptive opulence and tragic romance. When an aristocratic woman known only as madame de (le plaisirs extraordinary danielle darrieux) sells a pair of earrings given to her by her husband (gaslights charles boyer) in order to pay a debt, she sets off a chain reaction of financial and carnal consequences that can end only in despair.
