English Summary:
Madame Bovary is a 2000 British miniseries directed by Tim Fywell and based on the novel of the same name by 19th-century French author Gustave Flaubert. It is aired in two parts between 6 and 13 February in the U.S.A on WGBH-TV and from 10 to 11 April in the United Kingdom on BBC Two.
Madame Bovary takes place in provincial northern France, near the town of Rouen in Normandy. Charles Bovary is a shy, oddly dressed teenager arriving at a new school where his new classmates ridicule him. Charles struggles his way to a second-rate medical degree and becomes an Officier de santé in the Public Health Service. He marries the woman his mother has chosen for him, the unpleasant but supposedly rich widow Héloïse Dubuc. He sets out to build a practice in the village of Tôtes.
One day, Charles visits a local farm to set the owner's broken leg and meets his patient's daughter, Emma Rouault. Emma is a beautiful, poetically dressed young woman who has received a "good education" in a convent. She has a powerful yearning for luxury and romance inspired by reading popular novels. Charles is immediately attracted to her, and visits his patient far more often than necessary, until Héloïse's jealousy puts a stop to the visits.
When Héloïse unexpectedly dies, Charles waits a decent interval before courting Emma in earnest. Her father gives his consent, and Emma and Charles marry.
Hungarian Summary:
Gustave Flaubert regényklasszikusából a BBC forgatott a stúdiótól megszokott érzékeny feldolgozást, melyben Frances O'Connor (A.I. - Mesterséges Intelligencia) játssza a címszereplő asszonyt, aki szerelmes regényeken nőtt fel, ezért tüzes romantikáról és szenvedélyes szerelemről álmodozik. Végül egy megözvegyült vidéki orvoshoz (Hugh Bonneville - Sztárom a párom) megy hozzá, akire nagyon gyorsan ráun, ezért fűvel-fával megcsalja, és azzal sem törődik, hogy csélcsap életvitelével minden körülötte lévő férfi életét tönkreteszi.
