Product Description

The tragic story of sculptor Rodin and his muse, Camille Claudel. Camille becomes Rodin's apprentice and despite their difference in ages and much opposition, they fall in love. Their stormy love affair lasts for fifteen years. Camille is Rodin's inspiration but she is also a talented sculptor in her own right and her passion for Rodin and for her own work are at odds with each other. Despite attempts to break free from his influence and make a name for herself in a male-dominated world, her ultimate escape is madness.

4.0 out of 5 stars A tragic fall for a talented young artist
Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2008

Camille Claudel was the young talented studio assistant to Auguste Rodin who became his muse and lover at a point in his career when he was a commercial success but had become devoid of inspiration. When he refused to leave his common-law wife of many years to marry Camille, she had an abortion and then gradually sunk into paranoid schizophrenia. This is the basic story. However the subtle manner in which the story is told and the unresolved issues in the life of Claudel elevate the film into a work of art.

The film explores the artistic muse and their relationship with the artist. Camille was a muse in that her images were fresh and vibrant which inspired Rodin. She was also a willful and socially disruptive iconoclastic young women and Rodin is attracted to her outbursts of emotion. He is twice her age and becomes her lover even though he has a common-law wife that he has no intention of leaving. Their collaborations on his sculptures inspired some of his best work. Yet her father wisely knew that she was losing herself in Rodin, putting her inspiration into his products, elevating his career and not her own. It is the nature of the artist to draw from all experiences and resources around him/her for the benefit of their art. Picasso's paintings when he is in love and inspired by a woman are very different from when he is rejecting the woman and he paints her as a monster. The relationship between Rodin and Claudel somewhat reminded me of the relationship between Francis Bacon and George Dyer in the film, Love is the Devil. Once Dyer reached the point where he no longer inspired Bacon and was in fact a liability due to alcoholism and addiction and mental illness, then Bacon withdraws in much the way Rodin withdraws from Claudel as she becomes increasingly disturbed.

The film is very beautiful to watch. The scenes of Paris and the countryside around the city, as well as the museums and exhibition halls in Paris are very beautiful and grand. The acting is superb with Isabelle Adjani and Gerard Depardieu dominating every scene. Adjani has the ability to play highly disturbed women to perfection. She is in virtually every scene in the film. It is virtually impossible not to watch her when she is on the screen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Adjani channels Camille - almost eerie!
Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2013

If you are a fan of sculpture or even if you just like art - this is a must see. Camille Claudel was the love interest and muse of the famed sculptor Rodin and sister of famed poet and author Paul Claudel. Her fascinitating and all too short career as an artist showed traces of absolute genius. Unfortunately, she struggled with mental illness and lived in times that did not understand women who wanted to do more than be housewives. After her romance with Rodin ended, she struggled to pay her bills and keep her sanity. Eventually, her erratic behavior became too much for her family to bear and they shut her away in mental institutions where she spent the last 30 years of her life. Reports are mixed about her time in the mental hospital - some say the doctors asked her family to release her while reports of personal nurses say she suffered from paranoid delusions and would not have been able to live outside of the hospital. Regardless, her short and tragic life as an artist left us with some unforgettable pieces of sculpture and undoubtedly influenced some of Rodin's greatest works. This is a a beautifully shot film that does an excellent job of portraying the life and stuggles of a very talented artist.

The story/movie is a little choppy. It doesn't really go into her art as much as her life. In that aspect it makes you wonder really why she is noteworthy with the exception that there were few women artist that actually got a gallery show during that time. The art world and world was not that kind to women at that time. You will get that. I do not think this movie does Camille Claudel life or work just.

Un long et beau drame biographique avec Isabelle Adjani dans le rôle-titre et Gérard Depardieu dans celui d'Auguste Rodin. Nous suivons le parcours de cette sculpteuse talentueuse de sa première rencontre avec Rodin en 1885 jusqu'à son internement dans un asile en 1913. D'abord folle amoureuse de Rodin, nous voyons son esprit sombrer dans la folie à mesure que ses relations avec lui se détériorent. Un beau film à voir et à revoir.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Finely captures the era it portrays..."
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 2, 2011
Verified Purchase
Former cinematographer Bruno Nuytten`s directorial debut from 1988 which gained two Academy Award nominations in 1989, is based on the novel "Camille Claudel" by Reine-Marie Paris, grand-daughter of Camille Claudel`s brother Paul Claudel, which was adapted by Bruno Nuytten and Marylin Goldin. Isabelle Adjani won the Silver Berlin Bear at the 39th Berlin Film Festival in 1989 for her role in this film which tells the story about French sculptor Camille Claudel (1864-1943) and her relationship with impressionist sculptor Auguste Rodin (1840-1917) who became her teacher and lover during the early 19th century in Paris, France before the First World War.

With warm, colorful visuals, atmospheric music and detailed milieu depictions, this precisely filmed character-driven drama finely captures the era it portrays and the development of an historic figure who became a true artist. Isabelle Adjani`s interpretation of an ardent and self-disciplined young woman raised in a middle-class family who struggled with her art and with her love is remarkable, and so is Gérard Depardieu`s performance as the love of her life Auguste Rodin. Their acting is solely reason enough to see this interesting biographical period piece which centres on an unusually crafted love-story between two great artists.
