Line 1: {{work\|wppage=Belle de Jour (film)}} [[File:catherine_deneuve_gallery_6_3081.jpg\|frame]] {{quote\|''It is possibly the best-known erotic film of modern times, perhaps the best. That's because it understands eroticism from the inside-~~out--understands~~out—understands how it exists not in sweat and skin, but in the imagination.''\|'''[[Roger Ebert]]'''}} '''''Belle de Jour''''' is one of the most famous films directed by [[Luis ~~Bunuel~~Buñuel]]. Released in 1967, it starred then-débutante [[Catherine Deneuve]]. Séverine (Deneuve) looks outwardly like the perfect [[Housewife]]. Beautiful, demure, well-mannered and impeccably groomed, she is the very image of bourgeois propriety. In fact she is a masochist who likes to fantasize about being humiliated and treated like a sex object. On the recommendation of a friend, she acts out on these fantasies by becoming a part-time prostitute in an upscale brothel. Since she only turns tricks during her husband's business hours, she is given the moniker Belle de Jour, "daytime beauty". {{tropelist}} ~~-----~~ ~~=== Contains the following tropes: ===~~ * [[All Girls Want Bad Boys]] * [[All Just a Dream]]: It's unclear what really happens and what just takes place in Séverine's overactive fantasy life.
