About The Red & The Black

Handsome and ambitious, Julien Sorel is determined to rise above his humble peasant origins and make something of his life-by adopting the code of hypocrisy by which his society operates. Julien ultimately commits a crime-out of passion, principle, or insanity-that will bring about his downfall. The Red and the Black is a lively, satirical picture of French Restoration society after Waterloo, riddled with corruption, greed, and ennui.

rating: 5 Quotea wonderfully adapted classicQuote
a beautiful yet very sad movie in that tumult era before the french revolution. passion, jealousy, love, ambition, poverty, richness....whatever. beautifully performed and directed. the sadness of this movie won't make you shed tears. a french movie that rarely has the integrity from the very beginning to the very end. the tall and hansome young actor was really a very good and appropriate cast. nothing short of a 5-star rating.
