I enjoyed very much this film. The story is really interesting it deals also with the difficult situation of women in the first half of XIX century. Juliette Binoche is wonderful in this role, she is an ideal person for George Sand. The pictures are wonderful. The film is a bit too slow but the viewer has time to live through the emotional turmoil of Alfred and George. This film is worth seeing.
