Life imitates art: Gemma Arterton plays Gemma Bovery in a new remake of the French classic
The character of Gemma Bovery is a bored English woman who moves to the same town in France where Gustave Flaubert wrote his original 1857 novel.
The similarities between herself and the vintage woman are instantly recognised by a curious neighbour with a love of literature.
As Gemma finds herself drifting further and further from her husband Charlie (played by Jason Flemyng), she ends up paying more than a few visits to her male neighbour's 'chateau'.
