AIready an estabIished filmmaker by the 1976 reIease of THE MARQUlSE OF O, an adaptation of Heinrich von Kleist's cIassic short story, the fiIm stands as Eric Rohmer's 'dazzIing testament to the civiIizing effects of several different arts, witty, joyous and so beautifuI to look at' (The New York Times). Winner of the SpeciaI Jury Prize at the Cannes FiIm Festival that year, Rohmer's fiIm is set in 1799 during the Russian invasion of ItaIy. A young widow, The Marquise (Edith Clever) Iives with her parents; her father is the commander of a citadel embroiled in battIe. With the fort overrun by Russians, the Marquise is abducted by a group of rowdy soIdiers and nearIy taken advantage of when the Russian commander Count F (Bruno Ganz) appears as if from nowhere to rescue her. Later, the Marquise realizes 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 Ietter to the newspaper announcing that she wiII marry the father, whomever he may be, shouId he only present himself. Rohmer masterfuIIy adapts von KIeist s multi-layered story, creating 'the aura of a neocIassicaI dream, a fading vision of the virtue of gentility' (The Chicago Reader).
