        • Goofs
          At the train station, Célestine is supposed to be returning to Paris but she's waiting on the wrong side of the tracks: In one shot, one can clearly read "Direction Paris" on the other side.
        • Quotes

          Céléstine: It's strange, how the country always seems sad. - I guess, people don't have much fun here.

        The best of the three
        Jeanne Moreau plays a French chambermaid in around 1900 at a country estate in France. Every man she meets wants her. When a little girl who is sort of kept by the staff as a pet is raped and killed our heroine Celesitne decides to prove one of those men killed the girl. She tries to entrap him into confession with the lure of sex and the promise of marriage. I liked every minute of this movie but for the life of me I can't understand the ending, or the lack of one rather. This movie has a decided 1990s flavor since that was the decade of no proper ending.
