Gemma Arterton and Jason Flemyng star in this romantic drama based on the novel by Posy Simmonds. Village baker Martin Joubert (Fabrice Luchini) has an obsession with the Gustave Flaubert novel 'Madame Bovary' so when a young English couple move into the village, he is delighted to learn their names are Gemma and Charles Bovery (Arterton and Flemyng). As he gets to know the Boverys he realises that their lives are running in parallel to those of the characters in his favourite novel and when Gemma embarks upon a passionate affair, Martin fears his new friend is heading for a tragic end like that of her namesake.

ReviewsVillage Voice - Anne Fontaine's Flaubert-inspired meta-pleasure GEMMA BOVARY takes as its subject the act of watching the lives around us - and of wishing those lives were literature., New York Post - Laden with witty ironies, the film by Anne Fontaine suggests men may not play exactly the roles they think they do in women's lives.
