Life imitates art in uncanny ways in this seriocomic reimagining of Flaubert’s sensuous classic. When earthy beauty Gemma (Gemma Arterton) and her nondescript husband arrive in the French countryside, local fans of the novel can’t help but notice parallels with the Boverys’ life. Affairs stir. Ex-lovers reappear. Rumors abound. Director Anne Fontaine's (Coco Before Chanel) cheeky literary mash-up offers a witty feminist commentary and celebrates French provincial life. D: Anne Fontaine, France, 2015, subtitled, 100m
