Review of Belle de Jour (1967) by Eric H — 28 Jan 2015

Finally viewed the international classic "Belle De Jour" .This story has Deneuve as a bored young socialite rich housewife named Severine who has it all, but the problem is she can't get no sexual satisfaction with her husband a doctor.

Her only escape is to daydream of odd and rough sex of being tied up and playing rough. So finally she decides to take up a job as a prostitute in a brothel house! And this new secret life has it's good fun moments, but it has it's negatives and real down parts.

As love is found thru tragic means still the life of fantasy and erotic lust is not what it seems for Severine. Overall good erotic fantasy film that showcases how sexy daydreams can lead to love while paying a price.
