Storia
Set in the sheltered confines of an English coal-mining community during the 1920s, 'Women in Love' explores the erotic and emotional entanglements of two sisters, Gudrun and Ursula Brangwen. The story revolves around their relationships with two contrasting men: Gerald Crich, a wealthy and powerful industrialist who represents the brutal and exploitative nature of modern society; and Rupert Birkin, an idealistic schoolteacher who embodies the search for sincere and honest love.
Gudrun becomes entangled in a passionate yet destructive relationship with Gerald, while Ursula finds solace and understanding in her relationship with Rupert. The story explores the cataclysmic consequences of these relationships on all four individuals, as well as the wider community they inhabit.
Riassunto
'Women in Love' is a 1969 British drama film directed by Ken Russell, based on D.H. Lawrence's novel of the same name. The movie is set in post-World War I England and explores themes of love, desire, and societal change through the lives of two sisters, Gudrun and Ursula Brangwen.
The film is notable for its exploration of eroticism and emotional complexity, as well as its visual representation of Lawrence's prose style. It is also significant for its portrayal of same-sex relationships, albeit subtly, in the figure of Gerald Crich who engages in intimate physical contact with another man while wrestling.
