The Divine Sarah Bernhardt

Sarah Bernhardt (Sandrine Kiberlain) was a fearless, unapologetic icon of France’s belle époque, breaking societal norms and achieving international fame at a time when creative success was largely reserved for men. Often compared to modern figures like Lady Gaga, Greta Garbo, Marilyn Monroe, Madonna, and Beyoncé, Bernhardt was, in truth, even more outrageous.

The Divine Sarah Bernhardt, directed by Guillaume Nicloux, offers an intimate, visually sumptuous portrait of Bernhardt. With a painter’s eye and a novelist’s sense of drama, Nicloux crafts a film where glamour, scandal, and poetic melancholy intertwine, celebrating Bernhardt’s audacity, artistry, and enduring legacy.
