Les Dames du Bois de Boulogne (French for "The Ladies of the Bois de Boulogne") is a 1945 French film directed by Robert Bresson.[1] It is a modern adaptation of the story of Madame de La Pommeraye from Denis Diderot's Jacques le fataliste (1796) that tells the tale of a man who is tricked into marrying a prostitute.
Les Dames was Bresson's second feature. It is also his last film to feature a cast entirely composed of professional actors.[2]
