More Detail:
FROM THE JOURNALS OF JEAN SEBERG is an autobiographical drama of Jean Seberg, an American actress who achieved some fame in French and American productions. Mary Beth Hurt plays Jean Seberg as a host and invites the audience to experience a retrospective of her career and personal life. In the mid-1950’s, Otto Preminger interviewed 3,000 girls to play Joan of Arc in his production SAINT JOAN. He chose Jean Seberg. Seberg admits that she was either too young or simply miscast for the role, and SAINT JOAN was a flop. This movie was followed by two French productions with Jean-Luc Godard. Seberg then introduces clips from her most gratifying work LILITH by Robert Rossen, where she plays an emotionally disturbed character. Married several times, Seberg’s life ended in suicide at the age of 40 in 1979.
Only cinephiles will enjoy this tedious film. It demonstrates Seberg’s perception of herself as a mediocre actress, her analysis of how she was perceived by the public, her political career, and her comparisons with Jane Fonda and Vanessa Redgrave. FROM THE JOURNALS OF JEAN SEBERG is another painful reminder of the fragility of those who seek attention in the arts. Seberg gives a testament to personal pain and sin, which leads to her suicide. Her life is a warning for those who crave attention.
