Same conflict
different end,hollywood/europian plots
Two beautiful
movies Le Mepris (Contept)and Indecent Proposal. In
the first movie ‘Paul Javal is a writer who is hired to make a script for a
new movie about Ulysses more commercial, which is to be directed by Fritz Lang
and produced by Jeremy Prokosch.Because he let his wife Camille drive with
Prokosch and he is late, she believes, he uses her as a sort of present for Prokosch
to get a better payment.
In the second movie also Demi Moore persuaded
by her husband accepts the indecent
proposal to sleep for one night with Robert Redford the millionaire,so they would solve the economic problem.
In the first movie when the wife
discovers hers husband agenda she falls out in love from him and they break up.
While in the second movie they at first try to go back together then break up as would have happened in the real
life or so I belive but…. in the end I don’t know how they manage to get back
together. Does this mean that the European cinema in this case is more honest
about real life or Hollywood knows better things like - people always want a happy
ending.
