Madeleine (1950 film)
Madeleine is a 1950 film directed by David Lean, based on a true story about Madeleine Smith, a young Glasgow woman from a wealthy family who was tried in 1857 for the murder of her lover, Emile L'Angelier.
The trial was much publicised in the newspapers of the day and labelled "the trial of the century".
Lean's adaptation of the story starred his wife, Ann Todd, with Ivan Desny as her French lover.
Norman Wooland played the respectable suitor and Leslie Banks the authoritarian father, both of whom are unaware of Madeleine's secret life.
Lean made the film primarily as a "wedding present" to Todd, who had previously played the role onstage.
He was never satisfied with the film and cited it as his least-favourite feature-length movie.

David Lean
Sir David Lean (25 March 190816 April 1991) was an English film director, producer, screenwriter and editor.
Widely considered as one of the most influential directors of all time, Lean was mostly famous for his large-scale epics such as "The Bridge on the River Kwai" (1957), "Lawrence of Arabia" (1962), "Doctor Zhivago" (1965) and "A Passage to India" (1984).
He also directed adaptations of Charles Dickens novels "Great Expectations" (1946) and "Oliver Twist" (1948), and the romantic drama "Brief Encounter" (1945).
Originally a film editor in the early 1930s, Lean made his directorial debut with 1942's "In Which We Serve", which was the first of four collaborations with Noël Coward.
Beginning with "Summertime" in 1955, Lean began to make internationally co-produced films financed by the big Hollywood studios; in 1970, however, the critical failure of his film "Ryan's Daughter" led him to take a fourteen-year break from filmmaking, during which he planned a number of film projects which never came to fruition.
In 1984 he had a career revival with "A Passage to India", adapted from E. M. Forster's novel; it was an instant hit with critics but proved to be the last film Lean would direct.
Lean's affinity for pictorialism and inventive editing techniques has led him to be lauded by directors such as Steven Spielberg, Stanley Kubrick, Martin Scorsese, and Ridley Scott.
Lean was voted 9th greatest film director of all time in the British Film Institute "Sight & SoundDirectors' Top Directors" poll in 2002.
Nominated seven times for the Academy Award for Best Director, which he won twice for "The Bridge on the River Kwai" and "Lawrence of Arabia", he has seven films in the British Film Institute's Top 100 British Films (with three of them being in the top five) and was awarded the AFI Life Achievement Award in 1990.
