Review
|
Moody, atmospheric, and graced by the presense of Genevieve
Bujold. From the novel by Anne Hebert, based on a true
story, about a woman in 18th century Quebec who rebels
against her brutish husband, the Squire of Kamouraska, and
falls in love with a doctor. When they murder the husband,
the Doctor escapes across the border and she is charged with
the crime. Her aunts testify to her good character and she
is released and marries a stodgy, reliable sort and the
doctor is not heard from again.
