http://allgirlworlds.com Olivia is based on what is perhaps the most civilised and delicate girly-girl book ever written in Telluria, also called Olivia and written by Miss Dorothy Bussy Strachey, the sister of Lytton Strachey.

The book is so subtle and beautiful that it is hard to believe a film could do it justice: but this one does.

It was made in 1951, and directed by Mlle. Jacqueline Audry. The screenplay is by Colette.

The story is once again set in a school (one of the main sources for all-girl settings in Telluria). This one has two headmistresses: a married couple who epitomise the qualities of blonde and brunette in the Aristasian sense.

The blonde headmistress is played by Simone Simon. She is consummately blonde - delicate, sensitive, fluffy, and, unfortunately, at this stage in her life, rather neurotic.

The brunette headmistress is played by Edwige Feuillère, known to her adoring fans as Edwige Première (Edwige the First, as in the title of a queen) because of her cool and imposing presence. In Olivia she plays a wonderfully wise, sophisticated and literate brunette headmistress.

The heroine of the story is Olivia, an English girl who is sent to the school and becomes infatuated with the brunette headmistress. It is a delicate, beautiful coming-of-age story that could almost be taking place in Aristasia.

  • Thanks so much for posting this. A bit hard to read the subtitles, though.

  • thank you so much .

    oivia is girl school dorama.

  • nach das, madchen in uniform, after this one: see the german version: as this is a kind of french madchen in uniform.

  • Dear sister,

    Thanks, I knew you would not have let me sighing alone, like a languid Iphigenia abandoned in the post modern fury of the french pit, where, would you believe it, women dare to go out dans le monde without gloves. La Feuillère would never have indulged in such hideous lack of self esteem. The good way to post the moovie would be Google videos,on which you already posted the first part.Sister,crinoline rules!

  • Hello, I am the ghost of Edwige, calling you from the delicate heaven of prima donnas to upload the rest of this moovie. May you be cursed for ever wether you don't. Please, it would delight so much my tellurian sister Fabrizio if you did.
