Uniquely romantic and poetic among French new wave film-makers, Jacques Demy was a natural for the genre of fairy tale. And so he adapted the legendary children’s tale Peau D’Ane (a.k.a. Donkey Skin) by Charles Perrault, but with the Demy hall-marks – unforgettable score by Michel Legrand, sumptuous colour and design by Jacques Dugied. And of course the luminescent beauty of Catherine Deneuve. She plays a princess who runs away to the woods to escape her father’s bizarre choice of a husband for her . Naturally, she is discovered by a handsome prince who chances upon her, and alters her destiny. This 1970 feature pre-dates many great films of modern times by blending the nave joy and fears of fairy tales with a clever adult wit.
