大概是法国第一部描写女同志的故事片吧。 Olivia (also known as Pit of Loneliness) is a 1951 French film directed by Jacqueline Audry. It is based on the 1950 semi-autobiographical novel by Dorothy Bussy. It has been called a landmark of lesbian representation. Olivia arrives at a finishing school and falls in love with headmistress Mlle. Julie. Mlle. Julie feels the same, but tries to suppress her desire. For her part as Mlle. Julie, Edwige Feuillère was nominated for a BAFTA award for Best Foreign Actress in 1952. French director Audry made 18 feature films from 1944 to 1972. Her earliest films are prime examples of the French 'tradition of quality.' She favored plots adapted from French literature. Audry is most distinguished from her peers in that her films were primarily focused upon female leads, whereas traditional French cinema is centered around the lives of men. Her most notorious film was 1951's Olivia, which dealt with lesbian relationships.

Mtime网友：这个题材，做成这样，真的很不容易了。尤其是，影片在影像上非常有特点，大量的特写镜头、跟拍、手持，以及碎片式剪辑，营造出强烈的恐慌与不安感。这种情绪，其实就是角色在片中的情绪，它以影像的方式，最直接延伸给观众。
丢豆网网友：一个好的导演，是会调教演员的，知道演员的优势在哪里。《奥莉维娅》像极了一道来自异域的夏日甜品，虽然不是主菜的配置，但却也有着勾人的独特风情。坦白说，最初的确是冲着Jacqueline Audry 导演的名号看的，毕竟人家讲故事的功力摆在那里，但一开始就入了坑也是我怎么都没料到的。
豆瓣网网友：放在豆瓣语境下，是部时至今日终于拍出来的法国 “高分剧情片”。拿现实题材拍商业类型片，社会意义摆在那，群戏也处理得相当不错。对法国 而言，这样的电影多一部是一部，走一步是一步。
