[VIDEO ESSAY] To comprehend the impact of Camille Claudel's artistic achievements is to share in a spiraling struggle with insanity that consumes her before our eyes

Isabelle Adjani received a Best Actress Oscar for playing the "mad" French sculptress in this overblown biopic

An ambitious film about an overlooked artist and a self-reliant woman whose story is worth pondering.

Audience Reviews for Camille Claudel

This movie shows us once again that anyone can have a screwed up loving relationship. And for all the single girls out there who thing the man they are having an affair with are every going to leave there wife's, let's just say your chances of winning the lottery are better. In this movie we see French sculptor Camille Claudel develops her talent and ambition. In the process she catches the attention of legendary sculptor Auguste Rodin. Who she falls madly in love with and his passion for her is undeniable. But after Rodin turns her away and favor's his wife, her passion turns into rage, and her work once at its height in France tumbles, and she is committed for years in a mental institution. More or less the life and times of Camille Claudel . Get a large bag of Pop Corn, 2 Pizza's and a quart of ice cream as this is a long one in French with English Subtitles. Did you expect different I doubt that 1 out 500 Americans even know who Camille Claudel was. 3 1/2 stars.

Focused on the mistress of Rodin, I found Gerard Depardieu's depiction of the artist to be the most compelling part of the film. When he is on, he can easily do that in a picture.
