Blanche

In 13th century France, a landed noble (Michel Simon) was certain that his lovely, younger wife Blanche (Ligia Branice) would be the ideal hostess during the expected castle visit of the king (Georges Wilson) and his page (Jacques Perrin). However, when her beauty sparks improper advances from liege, retainer, and her own stepson (Lawrence Trimble), initially comic circumstances take a dark turn, in this lushly crafted early feature from Walerian Borowczyk. 92 min.
