À propos de ce film

BELLE is a tale of passion and romance in the face of overwhelming adversity. Inspired by a 1779 painting of Dido Elizabeth Belle, and her life story, BELLE tells the tale of a mixedrace girl raised as an aristocratic lady in 18th Century England. Battling social prejudice against the backdrop of a controversial slavery case, BELLE brings to life the love story of Dido Belle and John Davinier, in a world where one of Englands most powerful men, Lord Chief Justice Mansfield, stands between them. 2013 Dido Belle Limited, The British Film Institute

Notes et avis

One of the first mixed race marriages that may have changed, society as we know it today. Passionately per trade movie of relationships, society, and love of the times.

An absolutely beautiful movie. Loved every minute of it including the music. I wish I could buy the soundtrack but it doesn't seem to be available for some reason.

Entertaining, a stirring story told upon a sumptuous background and costume design. The lead actress was wonderful, and I identified with her struggle.
