Plots(1)
Junie (Lea Seydoux) is a beautiful 16 year-old girl who arrives at a new school after the death of her mother. Introduced by her cousin to a band of his close friends, Junie finds herself the subject of constant attention as the colorful group of boys woo her in turn. Eventually she strikes up a close relationship with Otto (Gregoire Leprince-Ringuet), the most gently-mannered of the bunch. Otto seems to genuinely care for Junie, but she soon falls in love with Mr. Nemours (Louis Garrel), her Italian teacher. Nemours is a charmer with a serious penchant for his students, driven crazy by Junie's mysterious nature.
A fresh adaptation of the classic novel La Princesse de Clevese by Mademoiselle de Chartres, THE BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE is director Christophe Honore's free and modern interpretation of the classic story of young love.
