French Period Movie by Jacqueline AUDRY

In 2021, the Austrian-American writer Irene Dische published the novel "Die militante Madonna / The Militant Madonna" about the life of the Chevalier d'Eon, who - although born a man - spent large parts of his life as a woman in the 18th century.

The film by Jacqueline Audry (1908-1977) is also about this historical figure. Here the Chevalier (astonishingly androgynous: Andree Debar) is a woman who poses as a man and wants to prevent the rapprochement between Prussia and Russia at the court of Tsarina Elisabeth (Isa Miranda). Of course, erotic banter (e.g. With Gabriele Ferzetti) is not neglected.

As a historical film, the film is rather mediocre. What's interesting is the gender theme and the fact that Jacqueline Audry, one of the few female directors who existed in the 1950s, directed the film. You should definitely keep her name in mind.
