Two Films by Marguerite Duras: India Song/Baxter, Vera Baxter
Overview
INDIA SONG: When Anne-Marie (Delphine Seyrig), the wife of the French vice-consul, grows weary of her oppressive life in 1930s India, she compulsively makes love so as to forget her situation. Her husband (Michel Lonsdale) is aware of her affairs but understands the cause of them and affects not to notice. BAXTER, VERA BAXTER: Vera Baxter (Claudine Gabay) is talking to a woman in a bar. It seems that the woman was attracted to her by hearing her name called out: "Baxter, Vera Baxter." In response to her new friend's queries, Vera recounts the story of her life, beginning with marrying her no-good husband, Cayre (Gerard Depardieu), who has been using her for some time as a kind of unpaid prostitute in order to keep his failing business afloat.
