I'm playing, playing with the wind and roll
Just searching for something
Hello?
Don't tell me you forgot Lucy
Lucy?
Of course you
No, I don't think he's the one
Not for you
Have you ever been in love?
Liv Tyler, Jeremy Irons, stealing beauty
Having trouble paying your bills?
Why not use your MasterCard to pay by phone?
MasterCard?
MasterCard, the SmarterCard
It's got a 1.5 litre engine
It's got power mirrors, a plush new interior
A four-speaker stereo system
It's even got a Smarter
Who can do all that?
They are so
That's so
The new charade
And you and I had some dealer now
Ah, nice of you to join us
Just getting my beauty sleep
Didn't work
Well, you're here
Wait, my taste buds are calling
So, a bit of fibre eh son?
Fibre?
Just give me these fat juicy sultanas
And these toasted malty flakes
I mean, if God had meant us to eat health food
He'd have given us health buds, wouldn't he?
Kellogg's Sultana brand, nutritious food made tasty
Adopt us
We're only four years old
But already we've touched the lives of millions of people
Imaginable as a joke
I wonder if you care
No need for greed or hunger
Rather look for health
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
You can say I'm a hero
But I'm not the only one
Oh, someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
It's only through bringing people closer together
That life will get better
That's what we're here for
Yes!

Good evening and welcome to Movie of the Week.
Tonight, Claude Chabrol's 1991 version of Gustave Flaubert's celebrated novel Madame Bovary
with Isabelle Hubert in the leading role.
The novel had been filmed at least twice before, in 1934 in France by Jean Renoir
and in 1949 in Hollywood by Vincent Benally.
Chabrol, usually known for his sophisticated thrillers,
which usually tweak the noses of the bourgeoisie,
tackles the material with relish.
The story of Emma, a country girl who marries a doctor, Jean-Francois Balmer,
and who comes to regret it when she meets the aristocratic Rodolphe, Christophe Malavoie.
Hubert is excellent in the role, and Chabrol, the social satirist,
is in top form as he dissects how greed and social climbing lead to tragedy.
The narration, well used in the film, is spoken by François Perrier.
Here it is then, Claude Chabrol's adaptation of Gustave Flaubert's Madame Bovary.
That was Claude Chabrol's Madame Bovary, made in 1991,
with Isabelle Hubert superb as a young country woman
who becomes a passionate lover before her dreadful death.
The director's shafts at greed and social climbing
help bring this material very much up to date.
Next week join me for a wonderfully funny satire on Movie of the Week,
Jesus of Montreal, stars Lothier Bluteau,
in a superlative black comedy from Quebec director Denis Arcand.
Jesus of Montreal is next on Movie of the Week.
And now stay viewing and I'll be back in a moment with Cinema Classics.
And tonight a film from the Ukraine titled Oxygen Starvation.
