Red Love

The Story of an East German Family

---

Beschreibung:

This is the story of Madame de-'s earrings. It is a story of jewellery, of love, of denial, of society that has the simplicity of a fairy tale and the elegance of an eighteenth century 'roman a clef' and the particular echoing loneliness that is a phenomenon of the twentieth century: the circle of deceit that society allows proves fatal to the honesty of intense passion. This novella became "The Earrings of Madame de", a 1952 Max Ophuls film.
