Synopsis

Camila O'Gorman (Susan Peccaro) is the daughter of an influential 19th century Argentine diplomat (Hector Alterio). Ladislao Gutierez (Imanol Arias) is a Jesuit priest, also living in Argentina. Tortured by her so-called impure thoughts, Camila confesses these to Gutierez. Flouting tradition, convention, and the repressive Rosas political regime, Camila and the priest embark on a torrid affair. Based on a true story, the Spanish/Argentine co-production Camila was honored with a Best Foreign Film Oscar nomination. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

5.0 out of 5 stars Amor Prohibido, April 24 2001
By Brandy Navurskis "blnavur" (Melrose Park, Illinois) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Camila (VHS Tape)
This film was excellent! I guess I am saying that becaue I am a true hopeless romantic and I fall for movies that contain romance and forbidden love as well. This film represents the patriarchal system and how it interferes with people's lives. Camila is a young women and Ladislou is a priest. Their love affiar is forbidden in the eyes of the church, family and government. However, they both follow their hearts in order to stay together. In return they go against the patriarchal system and are followed. It is important to note that the director María Luisa Bemeberg has a major influence on this film. She uses her own experiences and feminine nature to produe such films as Camila, or Yo la peor de todos. She is a great director and made this film attract a lot of viewers attention. I think it is important to mention that if this film were to be told by a man, then there would be different interpretations and the story about CAmila and Ladislou may be inaccurate. Overall, I loved the film!

5.0 out of 5 stars romance and tragedy, Aug 21 2000
By Alejandra Vernon "artist & illustrator" (Long Beach, California) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Camila (VHS Tape)
Set in 1847 in the midst of political turmoil in Argentina, this exquisite film is based on an actual event. It's the most romantic film I've ever seen, and after all these years of watching it, still moves me to tears. The cinematography is wonderful, and it's beautifully acted by all. The stars, Susu Pecoraro and Imanol Arias are fabulous, lovely to look at, and the erotic chemistry between them makes this story very believable. The scene in the belfry ! Ladislao:"What am I going to do with you ! " Camila: "Anything you want". sounds cliche, except it's between a priest and a socialite, and what happens after that will move you and amaze you. This is an unforgettable film.
