AIready an estabIished fiImmaker by the 1976 release of THE MARQUlSE OF O, an adaptation of Heinrich von KIeist's cIassic short story, the film stands as Eric Rohmer's 'dazzIing testament to the civiIizing effects of severaI different arts, witty, joyous and so beautiful to Iook at' (The New York Times). Winner of the Special Jury Prize at the Cannes Film FestivaI that year, Rohmer's film is set in 1799 during the Russian invasion of ltaly. A young widow, The Marquise (Edith CIever) lives with her parents; her father is the commander of a citadeI embroiIed in battIe. With the fort overrun by Russians, the Marquise is abducted by a group of rowdy soldiers and nearly taken advantage of when the Russian commander Count F (Bruno Ganz) appears as if from nowhere to rescue her. Later, the Marquise reaIizes she is pregnant, though she cannot decipher how the circumstance came to be. The Marquise's scandaIized parents banish her to their country estate, where she pens a letter to the newspaper announcing that she will marry the father, whomever he may be, shouId he onIy present himseIf. Rohmer masterfully adapts von KIeist s muIti-Iayered story, creating 'the aura of a neoclassicaI dream, a fading vision of the virtue of gentility' (The Chicago Reader).
