Aro Recommended Rapture

 

USA / France 1965, 104 minutes
Dir. John Guillermin
Rating: [M]
Genres: Drama / Youth, Romance

Feat. Melvyn Douglas, Patricia Gozzi, Dean Stockwell, Gunnel Lindblom

 

Aroview: Drama based on the 1954 novel "Rapture in My Rags" about a lonely teenage girl living with her widower father, who develops an attraction to an escaped convict who arrives on their farm in Brittany. However when she runs off with him to Paris she struggles with her new life and becomes disillusioned as dreams clash with reality.

Closely following the imaginary life of this young teenager (an astonishingly naturalistic performance from Patricia Gozzi, who also starred in SUNDAYS AND CYBELE) this is an undiscovered gem which offers a raw and honest portrayal of childhood isolation.
