La Belle Noiseuse est un film français de Jacques Rivette, sorti en 1991 lors du Festival de Cannes, où il reçoit le Grand Prix du jury, puis le prix Méliès.

Le film est une libre adaptation du roman Le Chef-d'œuvre inconnu de Balzac.

Nicolas, un jeune artiste peintre, rêve de rencontrer son aîné, le célèbre Édouard Frenhofer. Par l'intermédiaire de Balthasar Porbus, un marchand de tableaux, il est introduit avec Marianne, sa compagne, dans la demeure de Frenhofer. Celui-ci les emmène dans l'atelier qu'il a déserté et leur parle de La Belle Noiseuse, un tableau abandonné depuis dix ans, et pour lequel sa femme Liz avait servi de modèle. D'un commun accord, Nicolas et Édouard décident que Marianne sera la nouvelle « Belle Noiseuse ».

Marianne se rebelle contre une décision prise sans elle, mais, le lendemain, elle se présente à la porte de la maison. Pendant les cinq journées de pose, la tension va monter entre les différents protagonistes.
​
Après les premières réticences, Marianne s'attache au maître et finit par l'encourager quand celui-ci fatigue. Liz tente de prévenir la jeune femme sur l'enjeu d'être modèle pour Frenhofer, mais Marianne, indépendante et têtue, refuse de l'écouter. Finalement, le tableau achevé, Marianne, horrifiée, se découvre plus vraie que nature : c'est son intériorité que le peintre a réussi à saisir. Le tableau l'a définitivement changée : rien ne sera plus comme avant.

L'histoire originelle, Le Chef-d'œuvre inconnu, se passait au début du xviie siècle. Balzac y traitait de la création artistique et de ses rapports avec l'imitation de la nature.

Jacques Rivette, en adaptant très librement le texte d'origine, a replacé l'action dans un cadre contemporain, gardant le prénom du peintre (Nicolas pour Nicolas Poussin) et le nom de son maître (Frenhofer). Rivette s'attache davantage aux rapports entre le peintre, le modèle et la peinture. Ici, c'est le modèle du peintre, la belle Marianne, qui sera détruite par sa rencontre avec la peinture d'elle-même.

La problématique du rapport entre le corps, réduit à l'état d'objet de désir, de modèle, voire de cadavre dans le cas de Marie l'Égyptienne peinte par le héros de la nouvelle de Balzac, et le Pygmalion qui le représente, travaille depuis longtemps le cinéaste quand, au terme d'une longue réflexion sur le point de vue de Pablo Picasso sur ce sujet, il se décide à le traiter à sa manière. Dans son précédent film, La Bande des quatre, le personnage de Thomas Santini était à la recherche du tableau volé de Frenhofer, La Belle Noiseuse, dont la légende balzacienne fascinait également le peintre surréaliste Picasso.

« C'était le peintre Bernard Dufour qui était la main de Michel Piccoli dans ce film, celui qui dessinait et peignait réellement le nu pour lequel posait Marianne, interprétée par Emmanuelle Béart. »

Il est à noter que, contrairement à ce qu'affirme le personnage de Marianne, le mot « noiseuse » n'est pas employé au Québec. Il a vraisemblablement été confondu avec « niaiseuse », un terme québécois dérivé de l'adjectif « niaise ».

Dans l'une des scènes, Frenhofer demande à Marianne si elle connait un sculpteur du nom de Rubek. Il s'agit très probablement d'une allusion à la pièce d'Henrik Ibsen, Quand nous nous réveillerons d'entre les morts, où un sculpteur rencontre une mystérieuse jeune femme qui s'avère être l'un de ses anciens modèles à qui il captura l'âme pour la mettre dans son chef-d'œuvre, une sculpture appelée Le Jour de la résurrection.

Love in the Afternoon is a 1957 American romantic comedy film produced and directed by Billy Wilder and starring Gary Cooper and Audrey Hepburn. The screenplay by Billy Wilder and I.A.L. Diamond is based on the 1920 Claude Anet novel Ariane, jeune fille russe (Ariane, Young Russian Girl). The story explores the relationship between a notorious middle-aged American playboy business magnate and the 20-something daughter of a private detective hired to investigate him.

​A year later, Flannagan returns to Paris and the Ritz. Ariane, who has kept track of Flannagan's womanizing exploits through the news media, meets him again when she sees him at an opera while surveying the crowd from a balcony. She puts herself in his path in the lobby, and they start seeing each other again. This time, when he persists in his questioning, she makes up a long list of prior imaginary lovers based on her father's files, later telling Flannagan that he is her 20th. Flannagan gradually goes from being amused to being jealously tormented by the possible comparisons, but is unsure whether they are real. When he encounters a still-apologetic Monsieur X, the latter recommends Claude to him, and thus Flannagan hires Ariane's own father to investigate.

It does not take Claude long to realize that the mystery woman is Ariane. He goes to the Ritz, tells Flannagan her first name, informs his client that the girl fabricated her love life, and eventually tells him that Ariane is his daughter. He tells Flannagan that she is a "little fish" that he should throw back, since she is serious and he wants to avoid serious relationships.

When Ariane comes to his hotel suite that afternoon Flannagan is hurriedly packing to leave Paris, pretending to be on his way to meet "two crazy Swedish twins" in Cannes. At the train station they both keep up their act of not caring deeply for each other, although Ariane sheds a few tears that she blames on the soot. As the train departs Ariane runs along the platform and tells Flannagan, who stands in the coaches door, that she will soon travel with her many lovers. Running faster and faster as the train speeds up, her femme-fatale facade cracks, she frantically repeats "I'll be all right, I'll be all right", and her love shows through. Flannagan changes his mind, sweeps her up in his arms onto the coach, and before kissing her calls her by her name, Ariane.

In voice over, Claude informs us that the couple were married in Cannes and now live together in New York.

The director of Love in the Afternoon Billy Wilder ​contacted I.A.L.Diamond after reading an article he had written for the Screen Writers Guild monthly magazine. The two men immediately hit it off, and Wilder suggested they collaborate on a project based on a German language film he had co-written in the early 1930s. The script was based on the 1920 Claude Anet novel Ariane, jeune fille russe (Ariane, Young Russian Girl), which had been filmed as Scampolo (1928) and Scampolo, a Child of the Street (1932), the latter with a script co-written by Billy Wilder. Wilder was inspired by a 1931 German adaptation of the novel, Ariane, directed by Paul Czinner.

Love in the Afternoon would become the first of twelve screenplays by Billy Wilder and I.A.L. Diamond.

Wilder's first choices for Frank Flannagan were Cary Grant and Yul Brynner. "It was a disappointment to me that [Grant] never said yes to any picture I offered him," Wilder later recalled. "He didn't explain why. He had very strong ideas about what parts he wanted". The director decided to cast Gary Cooper because they shared similar tastes and interests and Wilder knew the actor would be good company during location filming in Paris. "They talked about food and wine and clothes and art", according to co-star Audrey Hepburn, Wilder's only choice for Ariane.

Talent agent Paul Kohner suggested Maurice Chevalier for the role of Claude Chavasse, and when asked if he was interested, the actor replied, "I would give the secret recipe for my grandmother's bouillabaisse to be in a Billy Wilder picture". Love in the Afternoon marked Chevalier's first non-singing role in a film since 1947. 

It was Wilder's insistence to shoot the film on location in Paris. Outdoor locations included the Château of Vitry in the Yvelines; the Palais Garnier, home of the Paris Opera; and the Hôtel Ritz Paris. Interior scenes were filmed at the Studios de Boulogne. However, Gary Cooper was reportedly uncomfortable in this, his first filming location outside the United States. To cover over Cooper's performance and also to obscure "the lines and age in Cooper's face", Wilder photographed the actor's face in shadow and with "gauzy filters"; the camera was also often positioned behind Cooper's back.

For the American release of the film, Chevalier recorded an end-of-film narration letting audiences know Ariane and Flannagan had married and were living in New York City. Although Wilder objected to the addition, he was forced to include it to forestall complaints that the relationship between the two was immoral.

​Music plays an important role in the film. A four-piece band of musicians called "The Gypsies" entertains Flannagan and his various lovers in his hotel suite, since Frank says he's "not much of a talker" and lets music create the romance. The Gypsies stick with Flannagan through thick and thin, serenading him as he drowns his sorrows in drink while listening to Ariane's recording of her long list of lovers, joining him in a Turkish bath, and following him to the train station.

Much of the prelude to the 1865 Richard Wagner opera Tristan und Isolde is heard during a lengthy sequence set in the Palais Garnier opera house, possibly conducted by Hans Knappertsbusch. Matty Malneck, Wilder's friend from their Paul Whiteman days in Vienna, wrote three songs for the film, including the title tune. Also heard are "C'est si bon" by Henri Betti, "L'ame Des Poètes" by Charles Trenet, and "Fascination", a 1932 song based on a European waltz, which is hummed repeatedly by Ariane.

Malneck later wrote lyrics for "Fascination" and "Hot Paprika". "Fascination" became a popular hit for Chevalier and for many other singers; "C'est si bon" was also recorded by numerous singers and became an international hit.

Jonhy Mercer later wrote lyrics for "Love in the Afternoon". The song became a hit for Jerry Vale and other singers.

​The film was a commercial failure in the United States. It did not resonate with American audiences in part because Gary Cooper looked too old to be having an affair with Hepburn's young character. Wilder himself admitted: "It was a flop. Why? Because I got Coop the week he suddenly got old". Allied Artists re-released the film in 1961 under the new title Fascination. However, in Europe, the film was a major success, released under the title Ariane.

It was a time when love was still expressed subtly and manifested nobly. French painter Michel Marnet (Charles Boyer) meets American singer Terry McKay (Irene Dunne) aboard a liner crossing the Atlantic Ocean. Although they are both already engaged, the two begin to flirt and slowly fall in love with each other. At a stop at Madeira, they visit Michel's grandmother Janou (Maria Ouspenskaya), who approves of Terry and wants Michel to settle down.

As the ship is ready to disembark at New York City, the two make an appointment to meet six months later on top of the Empire State Building. Michel chooses six months because that is the amount of time he needs to decide whether he can start making enough money to support a relationship with Terry. When the rendezvous date arrives, they both head to the Empire State Building. However, Terry is struck by a car right as she arrives, and is told that she may not be able to walk, though that will not be known for certain for six months. Not wanting to be a burden to Michel, she does not contact him, preferring to let him think the worst. Meanwhile, Terry finds a job working at an orphanage teaching the children how to sing.

Six months go by, and during Terry's first outing since the accident, the two couples meet by accident at the theater, though Terry manages to conceal her condition. Michel then visits her at her apartment and finally learns the truth. He assures her that they will be together no matter what the diagnosis will be.

Les Choses de la vie est un film français réalisé par Claude Sautet et sorti en 1970. Il s'agit d'une adaptation du roman du même nom Les Choses de la vie de Paul Guimard datant de 1967.

Pierre (Michel Piccoli), architecte d'une quarantaine d'années, est victime d'un accident de la route, au volant d'une Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint. Éjecté du véhicule qui prend feu, mortellement blessé et dans le coma, au bord de la route, il se remémore son passé récent, notamment les deux femmes qui comptent dans sa vie : son épouse Catherine (Lea Massari) dont il est séparé et avec qui il a eu un fils (Bertrand), et Hélène (Romy Schneider), avec qui sa relation amoureuse est à un tournant.

Il revoit sa vie en accéléré et réalise alors l'importance de ces multiples petites choses de l'existence, « les choses de la vie », ces joies et ces peines qui constituent le bonheur de toute une vie. L'état de Pierre constitue la trame du film : sans aucune conscience de la mort qu'il est en train de rencontrer, et naïvement obsédé par sa « fatigue », son monologue intérieur tourne sans cesse autour de la nécessité de ne surtout pas laisser traîner une lettre qui donnerait un sens tout autre à son rapport aux autres. Cette lettre ne parvient finalement pas à sa destinataire : elle est déchirée, ce qui accomplit le vœu ultime de Pierre.

The Things of Life (French: Les Choses de la vie) is a 1970 French drama film directed by Claude Sautet. Based on the novel Les Choses de la vie (English title Intersection) by Paul Guimard, the film circles around a car accident experienced by the main character, and the events before and after it. The film won the Louis Delluc Prize, and had 2,959,682 admissions in France, making it the eighth highest earning film of the year.

The idea of making a film from the Paul Guimard's novel was originally turned down by multiple financiers in France. It was the fourth feature directed by Claude Sautet, and his first to become a major success.

Sautet would work with actress Romy Schneider again on 4 further projects, including Sautet's next feature Max and the Junkmen. Sautet also hired young composer Philippe Sarde to write the score. That initiated a long partnership between the two, spanning twenty-five years and eleven films.

The Things of Life was remade by American director Mark Rydell in 1994 as Intersection with Richard Gere, Lolita Davidovich (as the girlfriend) and Sharon Stone (as the ex-partner). The remake was poorly received.

In the French countryside on a summer morning, a lorry full of pigs stalls at a crossroads. An Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint swerves to avoid it and crashes into an orchard, hurling the driver (Michel Piccoli) onto the grass. As he drifts in and out of consciousness, he revisits the essential things which make up his life.

A Paris architect in his forties driving to a meeting at Rennes, he had quarrelled with his lover Hélène (Romy Schneider) the previous night. They were due to leave together for a job he was offered in Tunis but he hadn't signed the documents. But he had agreed to take his teenage son Bertrand, who lived with his estranged wife Catherine, for a holiday in the family's holiday home on the Île de Ré. Stopping at a café, he wrote to Hélène calling everything off, but did not post the letter. Driving past a wedding, he decides that the letter was quite wrong and he should marry Hélène.

Rushed to hospital in Le Mans, he does not recover. As his widow, Catherine is given his effects, including the unsent letter to Hélène. Catherine is reading it when she sees Hélène arriving. She tears it to pieces, and Hélène is told by a nurse that she is too late.

La Señora fue una serie dramática de televisión producida por Diagonal TV para La 1. La serie se rodó en Asturias, Sepúlveda y Navalcarnero. 

A comienzos de los años 20, en España, las diferencias sociales eran abismales. Sobre todo en las zonas rurales la fuerza del caciquismo se basa enla tradición y el analfabetismo. Ciertos sectores de la burguesía y las clases trabajadoras luchan por subvertir la situación. En este ambiente germina el apasionado amor de Victoria Márquez, miembro de una poderosa familia, y Ángel, un diácono de familia minera. 

Ambos están muy enamorados, pero, pese a los deseos de Victoria, la rigidez de la sociedad se impone y los rigores de la mísera realidad de Ángel y su tendencia vocacional, hacen que éste termine ordenándose sacerdote. Por diversas circunstancias Victoria debe hacerse con las riendas del negocio de su padre, mientras su hermano Pablo se involucra en liderar los incipientes movimientos sociales de la época. Esta decisión, insólita y revolucionaria para una mujer de la época, entorpece los objetivos de Gonzalo, Marqués de Castro, socio del padre de Victoria y que planea controlar la empresa.

Tras el final de la serie, se ha realizado un spin-off llamado 14 de abril. La República en el que aparecen algunos personajes de la serie.

1920s, in Asturias, northern Spain where the difference between the middle class and working class was huge,  Victoria Márquez, daughter of a mine's owner fell in love with Angel, son of a worker in her father's minery who was forced to become a priest to help his family and be away from Victoria. But the two never stopped loving each other, even after Victoria had to marry Gonzalo, marqués de Castro, the business partner and also murder of her father. 

It was a tragic but powerful love story. 

After the end of the serie, the production company made a spin-off called 14 de abril. La República in which some of the characters in La Señora, including Gonzalo and Angel will make occasional appearance.
