Rent The Reader (1988)

The delectable Miou-Miou (Les Valseuses) earned a Cesar nomination for her tour-de-force performance in the film's central dual role. She's first introduced as Constance, a woman who shares her love of literature with her boyfriend. Audaciously, Miou-Miou also plays Marie, a character in the book Constance is currently lost in. Marie is a habitual storyteller herself and so Deville skilfully blends together a dazzling number of narratives in this cinematic page-turner.
