Jeanne Moreau made a lot of seminal movies in the 1960's,but her feral contribution to Tony Richardson's Mademoiselle (1966) has acquired a deserved cult following all its own.

Audience Reviews for Mademoiselle

I thought it was worth looking at , but would not want to own a copy. I liked seeing see actors better than their actual performances.

What an unusual and interesting post-Oscar career move for Richardson. Easily his most visually arresting film.

Although the film's moments are probably more effective than the whole, it's still quite a fascinating entry
