''Camille'' is a 1936 film directed by Creator/GeorgeCukor, starring Creator/GretaGarbo and Creator/RobertTaylor.
It is based on the novel ''La Dame aux Camelias'' by Creator/AlexandreDumasFils, popularly known in English as ''Camille'', and also the source of the opera ''Theatre/LaTraviata''. This non-musical adaptation finds Garbo playing Marguerite Gauthier, a high-class courtesan in 1847 Paris. Marguerite is starting to get a little long in the tooth to be a hooker, at least of the high-class variety, and she also has run up a lot of debts due to excessive generosity with her friends. Needing a means of support, she manages to become the kept woman of snooty, ultra-rich Baron de Varville (Henry Daniell).
Inconveniently, she also chooses this moment to fall in love with handsome young Armand Duval (Creator/RobertTaylor). Various obstacles interfere with their romance--Marguerite's debts, the disapproval of Armand's father (Creator/LionelBarrymore), and Marguerite's IncurableCoughOfDeath.
----
!!Tropes:
* ExactWords: Marguerite begs off of a meeting with the Baron, and when he asks why, she laughs and says perhaps she's met "the great romance of my life." She actually has, in the person of Armand.
* HaveAGayOldTime: The opening title card sets the story "In the gay half-world of Paris."
* HighClassCallGirl: Marguerite is the highest of high-class, servicing nobles like the Baron.
* HighClassGlass: Serves as an EstablishingCharacterMoment for Baron de Varville, when he fussily pulls out a monocle to take a closer look at the cancan dancers.
* HookerWithAHeartOfGold: Marguerite, generous to a fault, like when she has to borrow money to buy horses and a coach just so the coach driver will still have a job. Later, she breaks up with Armand solely because the social stigma of being with a former prostitute is ruining his career.
* IncurableCoughOfDeath: Not hard to guess how the story is going to end, when Marguerite is coughing into her napkin and leaving a party before the end of the first act.
* MythologyGag: Despite using the common but incorrect English title for this story, the film does have a line of dialogue in which someone calls Marguerite "the lady of the camellias" after she gets a big bouquet.
* NonIndicativeName: Just one of the many English-language adaptations that call this story "Camille" despite not having anyone named "Camille" in the movie.
* SexyDiscretionShot: Of the sort typical under UsefulNotes/TheHaysCode in which it's hard to figure out what is supposed to have happened. Armand and Marguerite embrace, Armand and Marguerite kiss. Cut to some time later, where they're lounging on a couch with his head on her lap.
