Regarding "Colette", let's start with "Burning", which was very popular some time ago.

The scene where the heroine takes off her shirt in front of the sunset and dances gracefully has become an annual moment in the minds of many people.

This move by the heroine is now seen as a symbol of freedom, openness and coolness.

But it may be hard for us to imagine that this would have been illegal decades ago.

At that time, women could only wear the clothes that women "should wear". In order to pursue a slender waist, they had to gird their waists too much, just to satisfy the aesthetics of men.

Colette quotes

  • Willy: You're overreacting. This was purely a business decision.

    Colette: Isn't that what our whole marriage has been? Wasn't I the best investment you ever made? No dowry, but my God, she can write for her keep!

  • [last lines]

    Colette: Yes, this is the dangerous, lucid hour. Now, whenever I despair, I no longer expect my end, but some bit of luck, some commonplace little miracle which, like a glittering link, will mend again the necklace of my days.
