Thank you for writing it and bringing attention to her superb work, unique talent, and story. I know you have seen Camille Claudel (1985 with Isabelle Adjani). I recently watched it again - it is always a powerful, moving experience. Have you seen Camille Claudel 1915 (French, 2013, Juliette Binoche plays her; about her time in mental institutions)? It is very raw and quite difficult to watch, but well worth seeing to really understand her in her "madness" and later years.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8617545316864155046.post-71761559135513379872016-02-12T03:59:40.031-05:002016-02-12T03:59:40.031-05:00What a sad story.

It sounds like the madness came a long time after the breakup with Rodin so I'm not sure he was completely to blame. It must have been difficult for him - clearly his first duty was to the mother of his child who was really like his wife. He shouldn't really have got involved with Camille at all.I will look out for the film.WoofWoofhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14142792485921452481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8617545316864155046.post-16483233243794914692014-01-11T10:14:46.790-05:002014-01-11T10:14:46.790-05:00My pleasure, Susannah.

I really enjoyed reading about Camille Claudel. You brought an interesting perspective drawing conclusions about her creativity with a sense of madness.
