Who is Emmanuelle?

Emmanuelle Beart is a French actress of whom I am rather fond. She initially attracted my attention in Un Coeur en Hiver, which was shown on television about 4 years ago. I sat instantly entrapped by her beauty. She seemed so perfect in every way that I could not even tear my eyes from her face to read the subtitles. As a result I had to buy the video to understand the subtleties in one of the most brilliant films of all times, even better than Krzysztof Kieslowski's series; Three Colours Blue, Three Colours White, Three Colours Red.

Every time I watch the film Emmanuelle and the other actors succeed in dragging me into the love triangle so that I feel the pain, confusion, lust and love of each of the characters. Any one that does not enjoy a film like this will probably not like many of Emmanuelle's films, as depth of character is her strong point. She can project every emotion of her character straight to your brain and she does not provide any anesthetics. I would advise anyone who is too afraid to confront their emotional self in real life to handel Emmanuelle Films with care. I have only ever seen one critic who managed to publish a book which did not openly praise Un Coeur en Hiver, in fact he criticised the classic french cinema in which he named Un Coeur en Hiver as one of two "Classics". Don't be mislead by such talk, you cannot get better than his description of classic French cinema. He is clearly devoid of emotion or too scared to confront it. Anyone who prefers typical big budget Hollywood films to anything produced in the french tradition should be sentenced to a life of watching them, hell on earth, even "great" films such as Sleepless in Seattle have such a basic plot that you cannot fail to get bored on the second run through. While I enjoyed Sleepless in Seattle as it had a very convincing emotional plot, it required so little mental effort and the characters were transparent that it can never be compared to the French cinema.

When I came to University College London to read Law, I was given access to a few megabytes of web space. After having designed a few homepages I started discovering other Emmanuelle Sites, using what I learned from them I started to construct my own Emmanuelle Worship page, the address for this was http://www.ucl.ac.uk/~zctln66/empics.htm. I have since, due to the expanding size, moved the Emmanuelle Pages to their primary site in Geocities, there are now however a number of mirror sites growing up. Occasionally you will find that some links will take you to a particular mirror that has more file room.

The click able picture above is the list of major headings of parts of this site, the list of pages for the part of the site you are in is on the left.
