Description:
Would you risk everything to achieve your dreams? For beautiful young Emma Bovary, a life of passion and excitement is worth any price. Like a moth drawn to flame, she is entranced by the exotic worlds of romance and adventure found in her favorite novels. Experience her story of illicit passion, ultimate betrayal and heartbreaking tragedy in Gustave Flaubert’s classic Madame Bovary. This faithful BBC dramatization follows Emma’s determined attempts to turn her fantasies into reality — from a loveless marriage to a kind but dull country doctor...through her torrid, ill-fated affairs...to a final, tragic attempt to break free from the nightmare her life has become. Madame Bovary vividly depicts one woman’s search for happiness in the world of class struggle, manners and expectations of mid-nineteenth century France.
