Eric Rohmer, lateblooming master of the French New Wave, caught the world by surprise with “The Marquise of O,” a German language period piece faithfully adapted from the novella by early 19th century author Heinrich von Kleist. The story deals with the quandary faced by a chaste young widow when she finds herself inexplicably pregnant. “The Marquise of O” stands both as one of cinema’s greatest literary adaptations and one of its most pleasingly convincing period pieces.
