Three films feature Dulac’s visually striking means of investigating romantic disillusionment, and the frustrations and fantasies of empty domestic life. L’Invitation au voyage is based on writings by Charles Baudelaire, and The Smiling Madame Beudet is a shining example of Dulac’s use of experimental techniques to convey psychological states.
