One of Greta Garbo's touchstone films, this 1937 adaptation of the Alexandre Dumas novel finds the actress playing a dying courtesan who falls in love with a young nobleman (a slightly miscast Robert Taylor) and must sacrifice her happiness. Directed by George Cukor (The Philadelphia Story), the supreme "women's director" in Hollywood at the time, the film could have existed just to give Garbo room to be luminous (despite her character's illness) and a great star. But it is also a gorgeous MGM production with strong performances from Lionel Barrymore and the rest of the cast. (Henry Daniell is a standout as the villain.) --Tom Keogh


Review

Camille is among MGM's most lavish productions of the 1930s, and features what many critics consider to be Greta Garbo's greatest film performance. Among the last of the projects overseen by studio production chief Irving Thalberg, the film boasted MGM's customary collection of behind-the-camera all-stars, including director George Cukor, whose patient attention to Garbo helped her to find just the right tone for her role. The supporting cast is similarly solid, highlighted by standouts Henry Daniell and Laura Hope Crews. They help to deflect attention from the film's weaker scenes, most of which involve Lionel Barrymore as the father of the frustrated suitor (Robert Taylor). Despite spending the latter part of the film succumbing to illness, Garbo looks radiant, thanks to her Adrian gowns and William Daniels' loving cinematography. ~ Richard Gilliam, All Movie Guide

5.0étoiles sur 5 Good Old Hollywood Magic, Oct. 12 2005
This review is from: Camille (VHS Tape)
This film is the epitome of good old Hollywood romance and glamour. Beautiful people, gorgeous costumes, wonderful sets and luminous lighting all conspire to transport the audience into another world. You know it is all very much contrived but you are more than happy to surrender yourself to the experience. Isn't this what a movie experience should be?

The pacing is excellent and the dialogue is always refine and elegant, sometimes deeply moving (as when delivered with such class by Duvall Senior), other times lightly humourous, which can only come from good writing.

Both Greta Garbo's and Robert Taylor's performances are absolutely superb. Ms Garbo's Marguerite is drop-dead gorgeous. Shs has been given an adoring platform to display the full range of her acting prowess. Mr Taylor's love-struck Armand cannot be more convincing. His subtlety is nothing short of masterful for such a young actor. I cannot understand why he did not receive any acting nomination for this role. There are so many actors who have won for less.

Watch out for the scene when Marguerite announced to Armand that she would be leaving him. In all of one second, Mr Taylor's eyes conveyed his shock, followed by realisation at this unexpected turn, his pain, his heartache, his deep sense of betrayal and his terror of losing her.

3.0étoiles sur 5 Great Garbo--The Rest , well . . ., Mars 2 2004
Par Matthew Patton (Deltona, Florida) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Camille (VHS Tape)
Greta Garbo is so good in this film, so witty and touching and appealing, that it's easy to forget how ordinary much of the surrounding film is. To be sure, it was given a lush budget and Henry Daniell, as Garbo's "patron" of the moment is almost as accomplished and touching as she (how much more interesting; a love story between two people who are prevented by convention from admitting the fact, even to each other), but Robert Taylor's perfromance is as stiff as his collars, the rest of the cast is little more than competent, and George Cukor's direction confirms that he was much luckier in his casts than they were in getting him as a director; Vincente Minnelli actually got a performance of sorts out of Lana Turner--a few years earlier Cukor did little more than make sure the lighting was flattering and that Turner didn't trip over the furniture. Fortunately, Garbo had no such problems, and her performance makes Maguerite Gautier one of the wittiest and most appealing characters in film history, and when she dies at the end, she makes you feel that a little bit of what makes the world good left with her--not a bad accomplishment, that.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Inspiration for Baz Lurhman's "Moulin Rouge," perhaps?, Mai 28 2003
Par Carrie Elizabeth (Washington state) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This review is from: Camille (VHS Tape)
I thought Camille was a very good movie. Greta Garbo is stunning as always, and I really liked Robert Taylor as her love interest. As I was watching the movie, I couldn't help but notice some startling similarities between this film and the more recent, Moulin Rouge, starring Nicole Kidman and Ewan MacGregor. Some lines in Camille sound almost exactly like one's in Baz's flick, and Greta's character, Marguerite, does resemble Nicole's Satine; at first, they seem over the top party animals, and then you realize they're regular, sensitive girls (and they both have a fatal illness). Also, the Baron in Camille is quite a lot like "the Duke" in Moulin Rouge.
Anyways, sorry for the rambling. I recommend you see this film. Especially if you enjoyed Moulin Rouge!
