Bluebeard

Based on Charles Perrault's grisly fairytale, Bluebeard tells the story of young Marie-Catherine, child bride to an aristocratic ogre with a reputation for murdering his wives. Controversial director Catherine Breillat brings her personal touch to this classic tale, a favorite of good little French girls since the 1950's. Princess Marie-Catherine must employ all her cunning to outwit her husband and escape a potentially unpleasant fate. (Strand Releasing)
