"She held on for a long time. No weapons, no tricks, no disguise. Just bare hands, nothing else. No more chisels, no mallets, no sculptures. They took everything. She reviewed the book on how to use it. The old Old Testament. She wants to sculpt: the weak against the strong, the little against the big. And many, many heroic epics, and she wants to re-read them with ten dusty fingers. There she is , no books, no mud, no assistants. Only the tights that bind the madman."
- "Rodin's Lover" Anne Delbay
opens with Camille digging hard and picking stones. Claudette's stubborn face in order to sculpt an ideal.
At first, the soil was her lover. Then, a man named Rodin broke in and crushed her together with the soil into the
sculpture, and turned it into a skeleton sculpted by Rodin.
There is such an ancient poem in China. Pipeline Li "My Nong Ci"
"...Take a piece of mud, twist one of you, mold one of me, break the two
of us together, and mix with water.
Pinch another of you, and mold another of me.
I have you in the mud, and you have in the mud. I live in the same quilt
as you, and die in the same coffin."
This is a complex that every woman cannot escape. Especially when ideals and cults become complicit.
Camille jumped out of the banquet hall happily and slightly drunk, and she followed Rodin to the dreamy Paris.
Like the tree spirit in Andersen's fairy tale, who dreamed of blooming flowers but was born towards destruction, thinking that happiness should be the reflection in the wishing pond.
"She came back and took his (Rodin) arm, and the other hand took Paul. Please love me hard."
Rodin's 1884-1886 sculpture "The Kiss" is said to be the inspiration for this work. It is from
the day and night life with Camille . This work was completed before their relationship broke down. The power and conquest of the male body, the female
Rodin's dominance in this relationship is reflected everywhere. Critics said the kiss was a kiss to hell and heralded the tragedy to come after sweet passion.
For the relationship between Rodin and Rose, Camille is unwilling to share nor tolerate it. After struggling, he chose to tie down the
half-life "Miss Rose". A woman who is silent and forbears mediocrity is often the ultimate winner in a relationship.
Unforgettable Camille's large ethereal eyes looked into the dark room pierced by sunlight. "That's not you, you're wrong, you're Rodin the sculptor, not a statue. The old woman who passed away is me, the girl who lost her youth is me, and the man is me, those are my three The incarnation, not you. I gave him all the pain in exchange for the emptiness, intertwining the three incarnations of the emptiness." However, Camille lost more than that. The failure of the exhibition, the cynicism of critics, and even leaving, were crucified as a "Rodin student" mark... Stubborn like her, destroyed like her.
The eyes of Adjani, who had broken the lens. The last affectionate glance at the soil never came back with the sound of horse ruts.
The opening in the novel is exactly the end of the story in the movie: "Camille's household registration card. Poor lame figure. Between my two fingers, I saw her dancing: one left, one right; one left, Right. A piece of thin paper, a light breeze can blow it away, and a sigh can tear it apart. Will the future century remember you like this? True. At that time, the time spent for death Too much and you don't die. Poor life swayed between two pontoon bridges - 1864-1943, 1943-1864! Then this dirt that people threw away - crumbled to crumbs Dirt...that's everything."
30 Years, Montverge Asylum. The pendulum of erotic desire of the talented female sculptor stopped.
