Portrait of a Lady on Fire
(Pyramide Films)Directed by Portrait of a Lady on Fire, Céline Sciamma’s Portrait of a Lady on Fire is peak period romance. Set in the 18th century on a remote French island, the film revolves around Marianne and Héloïse—the flint and tinder for the ultimate sapphic slow-burn. Hired to paint Héloïse’s portrait before she’s married off to a nobleman, Marriane spends hours each day gazing into the stunning face of her subject, and that subject studies her with equal intensity. You know that Nietzsche quote about abysses and their penchant for staring into you? In this case, the abyss in question is Héloïse’s eyes, reflecting Marianne’s hidden desires back at her. A dreamlike portrait of love painted against a rugged coastline, this film is as flammable as an oil painting and equally beautiful to look at.
