Don Juan (or if Don Juan were a Woman)

Can an old movie from 1973 be refreshing?

Seriously! Our times have become dull… In this flick, starring Brigitte Bardot as Jeanne, a female version of Don Juan lives her life persuing her own pleasure. No cost is too high to the men she seduces. The story is actually a series of flashback as she confessses to her cousin, a model/Priest her conquests. No need to hint at what she makes of him.

available on Netflix…

Worth seeing because:

a) totally amoral tale even if redemption lurks in the end
b) Brigitte Bardot & Jane Birkin kissing and cuddling naked on a fur bed – and no the brazilian bikini was not a la mode back then! (scene still requesting parental permission on websites)
c) gorgeous original fashion before everything was copied and cloned (literally the Azzaro dress is available on their website!)
d) she lives in a killer glass submarine filled with mirrors, a fire and lots of fur.
d) Favorite lines in no particular order…

“Men are out of style…”

“How could you possibly think for a second that I was interested in you, You didn’t understand that it was all a matter of possesing you…”

“I don’t like to be treated in the way I treat others…  don’t like that one bit!”
