2. SYNOPSIS

The story takes place in Saint-Pierre (1850), a small French island not far from Canada. One night, a man is brutally murdered. The culprit, Neel Auguste was sentenced to death. The method chosen, as an example and following the dictates of the metropolis, is the guillotine. But on the island there is no guillotine or executioner whatsoever. The French governor promises to remedy the situation, but that will be a huge wait, because the deadly device to come from Paris. Meanwhile Neel under the custody of the Captain and humbly awaiting execution. The Captain's wife, is particularly interested in the fate of Neel, who see in goodness and simplicity. She refuses to accept that man can be cruel and confident their rehabilitation at all costs. During that period of time, with the help of his benefactor, and against the local authorities consider the condemned man becomes more popular and indispensable part of the island, but when the guillotine arrives, it should be justice and meet sentence.

3. WHY "The Widow of Saint-Pierre" IS A FILM CAREER. NOTES FOR THE ENTERTAINER.

We are facing an impressive film based partially on a true story occurred during the 20's. The potential does not provide for vocational work are immense given the variety of looks that can be done. It will be the moderator who will have to emphasize the elements that most interest with respect to the group that is going to work.

Patrice Leconte therefore gives us a triptych of characters, among which is the Lady La (Juliette Binoche), who carries more importance. But both the Lady's, and Nell and her husband, the man condemned to death, offering a variety of interesting aspects. We watched in pure love, a love to think of another above oneself, a true love that moves in a triangle of characters, which all give and all receive, a love under threat of death, the guillotine, which in French is called popular veuve (widow). I offer the following paragraph (which is not wasted by the depiction of the couple) taken from http://www.bloggermania.com/content/view/2618/2/

"In other plane are located the captain and his wife, who form a modern marriage at the time. In bourgeois society, cruelly portrayed in the meetings room, Madame La-noble woman who has left the City to follow her husband to a kind of exile-known for his independence of spirit, solidarity and openness. That attitude is possible through the love and support that gives it its prestigious husband. The captain is a solitary, follower of his duty, but he has his own ideas, which makes him a marginal man, protesting. Able to bypass the rules for a just reason, together they face the gossip and local authorities, for whom death sentence is just a hobby that relieves the boredom usual "

I think would be interesting to provide a brief reference to the role of each of these three characters:

1. The Lady the one who started this movement of love, which ceased to be indifferent to decide interest in a death penalty. She asks for help take care of your greenhouse to a non- Plants have no idea. She embodies the faith and confidence of the individual above his mistakes or his dark past. Mrs. Nell's conducive to go from being a condemned man a hero. But she does not do everything alone. Trust your husband. Without their support, love and trust, could not have done. She thus becomes the voice of the other neighbors, before the death sentence.

2. Captain lives only for his wife, Lady's. His life is to love and feel what she feels. But all the time he shows master of his actions. It does not take certain decisions simply to please her against her own will. He does what he calls his wife because for him it is as fair. His strength and his personality is revealed when it succumbs to the snide comments about his wife running around the island, or when faced with all the aristocracy. His love for his wife is so great that she has no doubt at any time. For me is the most enigmatic of the three: for the love of his wife refuses to justice the offender, knowing that it will lead to death. His sentence before being executed, "can not do anything to us, I love you," leaves us the assurance of a transcendent love, which remains beyond death.

3. The convicted Nell is redeemed not death that manages to avoid the end, but a social condemnation. Surprisingly receive free love and trust of the Lady's and this makes it change, grow. It also springs from love when it decides to marry, but especially when presented as the first volunteer to tow the guillotine to ground thinking more of his wife and unborn baby, who in himself. He knows that the death sentence will come sooner or later, but until then does nothing to help the community.


This film will help to deepen the idea of \u200b\u200bvocation as "madness of love." There are things in life, usually the most important, are not explained with the reasoning, but with the heart, with passion, in short, to love. The vocation is one of them.

is worth noting that the action of helping Nell is something done in pairs. The Lady and her husband's will to become personally involved. The couple's love is firm throughout the order. Although it suggests the presence of temptation, love is a strong and seamless. There is chemistry in this pair that communicates with expressive glances and silences, which reaches its climax in that memorable dialogue in which Madame La prepares Neel evasion. "What look is that?" Asks her husband. "The look of a man who loves his wife and can read everything in their eyes," he replies. It could work very well the vocation of marriage and its social implication, from the couple.


Other issues are also presented for discussion and debate, including the death sentence. But I would highlight another: going against the law considered as unfair. Opposing the death of Nell, the captain know in advance that will be convicted and executed. In some ways reflects the attitude of Jesus of Nazareth that eludes death, but the look face to face and decide to go ahead with its project of the Kingdom of God.

4. FILM MATERIALS FOR WORKING


4.1. View and analyze

I think the most interesting is to work each of the three characters principal: Mrs. A, her husband and Nell. Three groups could be made for everyone to be responsible for study in some depth a single character. In the end, a pooling will lead to shared dialogue. These could be questions for the study:

1.describe the character both at the beginning of the film, as its evolution over the same.

2. What is the relationship with the other two characters? How you influence others? How it will affect them?

3.Trata to imagine your character write a letter at the end of the film. Write it.

The pooling can use three cards, one for each character, which is positioned as if they were the vertices of a triangle. They will be scoring the traits and characteristics of each character. Then, by way of arrows between the cards will be written about and other influences that are made in the film, as has been reflecting each group.

A question for all: what is at the center of the triangle? What makes you stay in balance?


4.2. We challenges

- with what character do you most identify? Why?

- do you seem logical or reasonable that the captain refuses to execute Nell? What do you have done?

- if you were an immigrant, would you have accepted the job of executioner?

- what aspect of your current life is reflected in the film?

- what movie is what you suggest, you ask?

- following the movie how would you define love?

2. LET'S SEE

Let's see if it is true that we love

we look at ourselves inside a little

There are things hanging that hurt him

mopping the floor and open the doors!

delete the names of the blacklist,

enemies put on the dresser,

Let us invite them to soup.

Let's play the flutes of fools, of the simple.

God if you are comfortable low.

(Gloria Fuertes)


3. Proclamation of 1 Cor 13


If he spoke all the languages \u200b\u200b

of men and angels

and have not love,

am as sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal;

and if having the gift of prophecy

and know all mysteries and all knowledge,

and so much faith to remove mountains,

if I have no love, I am nothing;

and though I bestow all my goods

and surrender my body to the flames,

not having love,

I gain nothing.

Love is patient,

love is kind;

not envy,

does not boast,

is not presumptuous ;

is not rude,

not seek its own,

not provoked,

thinks no evil;

not rejoice at wrong,

but rejoices with the truth;

all-forgiving love,

always trusts,

always hopes,

all tolerated.

Everything will pass, but love.

(Allow a moment of silence echoes that make the text)

7.SI THE LOVE WE MADE

If we do make love

shoulder

shoulder

fatigue fatigue

and tear with tear.

If we did one.

each other.

next to each other.

Above gold and snow,

even beyond the gold and the sword.

If a block did not crack

with six billion

of red hearts that beat us ...

how beautiful architecture

would rise from the mud!
