Edouard Frenhofer (Michel Piccoli) is a reclusive painter living in the French countryside with his wife (French cultural icon Jane Birkin). Their lives are radically upended with the arrival of a younger artist (David Bursztein) and his girlfriend (Emmanuel Beart), who becomes the muse that awakens Edouard's fading passions. Rivette creates a layered character study, while also offering an immersive meditation on the creative process. Cohen Film Collection is proud to present a gorgeous new 4K restoration. Review: A one of a kind french film about the purpose of art. - A moody and intriguing film that captures the mundane aspects of the artistic process and the flashes of brilliance that come in a blink of the eye. In this case the painter is in search of truth always and wants to lay it bare on his canvass. A difficult pursuit when the model is a young strong willed woman who has doubts about the artist. Emmanuelle Beart is perfect in the role. A great film about what art can offer and what it can take away. Review: Not A Movie For Everyone, But It Is Certainly For Me - If you don't like movies that are described as a "slow burn" then this isn't going to be the film for you. Not to worry, there is plenty else out there. Personally though, I loved it. As an artist myself I found that this film is one of the few that really captures the frustration and intrique of being an artist. It's an externaly calm and lonely pursuit quite frankly even if you are tearing yourself apart on the inside. Not everyone watching this movie is going to get that which I totally understand. This movie is beautifully photographed and well acted. Nothing over the top. If you're an artist, a musician, or a photographer you'll probably get something out of this. If not, I'd still argue you should give it a try. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Emmanuelle Béart, Jacques Rivette, Jane Birkin, Michel Piccoli | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 184 Reviews | | Format | Subtitled | | Genre | Drama | | Language | French | | Runtime | 3 hours and 58 minutes | ## Product Details - **Genre:** Drama - **Format:** Color, NTSC, Subtitled, Widescreen - **Contributor:** Michel Piccoli - **Language:** French - **Runtime:** 3 hours and 58 minutes ## Images ![The Beautiful Troublemaker - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71zCsTfDwLL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A one of a kind french film about the purpose of art. *by K***L on November 26, 2018* A moody and intriguing film that captures the mundane aspects of the artistic process and the flashes of brilliance that come in a blink of the eye. In this case the painter is in search of truth always and wants to lay it bare on his canvass. A difficult pursuit when the model is a young strong willed woman who has doubts about the artist. Emmanuelle Beart is perfect in the role. A great film about what art can offer and what it can take away. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not A Movie For Everyone, But It Is Certainly For Me *by A***R on December 27, 2024* If you don't like movies that are described as a "slow burn" then this isn't going to be the film for you. Not to worry, there is plenty else out there. Personally though, I loved it. As an artist myself I found that this film is one of the few that really captures the frustration and intrique of being an artist. It's an externaly calm and lonely pursuit quite frankly even if you are tearing yourself apart on the inside. Not everyone watching this movie is going to get that which I totally understand.

If not, I'd still argue you should give it a try. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Portrayal of the Artistic Process *by A***R on October 27, 2020* O.K. Lets get the obvious out of the way first. Emanuelle Beart is gorgeous and in her birthday suit for much of this movie. That being said, this is not a "sex" film and the nudity is not gratuitous. It is an accurate portrayal of the artistic process and the relationship between a figure painter and his model/muse. The artist twists his model into various pretzel like poses which look quite painful to hold for any length of time, reflecting the demanding nature of figure modeling. The acting is generally good. I particularly liked Jane Birkin's portrayal of the artist's long suffering wife and former muse. The setting in a picturesque villa or castle in the south of France is a feast for the eyes and makes me want to live there. So why did I give this otherwise fine film only four stars? Like several other reviewers, I found the actual paintings created by the artist to be disappointing, and it was difficult to see why he would be so famous. It was also a letdown not to see the finished work. Otherwise, a fine film. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sg/products/74887163-the-beautiful-troublemaker](https://www.desertcart.sg/products/74887163-the-beautiful-troublemaker) --- *Product available on Desertcart Singapore* *Store origin: SG* *Last updated: 2026-07-21*
