Elena and Her Men (1956)
The Only Thing Gayer Than April in Paris is Bergman in Paris!
Starring Ingrid Bergman, Jean Marais, Mel Ferrer
Directed by Jean Renoir
Set amid the military maneuvers and Quatorze Juillet carnivals of turn-of-the-century France, Jean Renoir’s delirious romantic comedy Elena and her Men stars a radiant Ingrid Bergman as a beautiful, but impoverished, Polish princess who drives men of all stations to fits of desperate love. When Elena elicits the fascination of a famous general, she finds herself at the center of romantic machinations and political scheming, with the hearts of several men—as well as the future of France—in her hands.
