"Le Bonheur" is a visually stunning French film directed by Agnès Varda and released in 1965. It tells the story of François, a seemingly content married man with a beautiful family. However, he embarks on an affair with a woman named Émilie, believing that love and happiness can be multiplied. The consequences of François' actions unfold, raising questions about happiness, fidelity, and societal expectations. The film features vibrant scenes with abundant flowers and picturesque family picnics, capturing the beauty of life. The cast includes the real-life couple Jean-Claude Drouot and Claire Drouot, along with their own children, bringing a natural authenticity to their performances. While initially showcasing happiness, the story takes a darker turn as François grapples with the ramifications of his choices. Through a brilliant juxtaposition of Mozart's uplifting Clarinet Quintet and the intense Adagio and Fugue in C minor, Varda guides us through François' transformation from sunlit optimism to a self-imposed emotional wilderness. "Le Bonheur" is a masterfully crafted film that explores the complexities of human desires and the unexpected consequences that can arise, leaving viewers captivated by its surface beauty and underlying themes of anxiety and guilt.
