A French film now showing on Hulu instead of the big screen. A wealthy woman's older sister dies and she is tasked to take her place in a marriage to a wealthy man living in Milan. Her mother wants this for her because it will allow her to be in a position to have some freedom and be close to the cultural arts in Milan. The woman is to have her portrait done, so when she arrives to her new home a new bride she will have a familiar face waiting for her. The woman has been difficult and refusing to pose until she meets a new female artist. They fall in love and while the bond between them is being shown to grow the audience gets a peak at what life was like for women at the time. All in all, I say: SEE IT - you will have to read sub-titles and it is a little slow going.
