Help! Which Gerard Depardieu movie is this?

Many years back I saw part of this Gerard Depardieu film which I'm pretty sure was french. In it Gerard Depardieu is rowing a boat with another woman in the boat. The woman asks Gerard Depardieu's character if she can call him Emile. He says yes and she calls him Emile.

Edit: I forgot to mention, it is a period piece (set in old times like 1800's). I also checked his imdb page and its not the one in which his character name is listed as "Emile." It was the nickname that the woman in the boat wanted to give him, maybe because he reminded her of someone else?

I don't know which movie this is and I didn't even understand the language. Please someone help me before the boards close down! Thanks.

Hi godewey,

I hope you get a notification for my post. Me and another poster MovieManCin2 are great movie buffs just as you are. We are considering starting a "film discussion club" (or film discussion group if that's clearer). The idea as of now is that "members" of this club will choose a film by consensus (that we have all watched, or if you've not watched the film, you DO watch it) and then one of us opening a thread on that movie's board and posting discussion questions that we all answer. It's just a means to get us talking about films that we love and exchange ideas. We are looking for intelligent, knowledgeable posters to join this group, and we would love to have you join us to enrich our discussions. Would you be interested? This is not a formal thing. You can participate as much or as little as you like. If you are interested, please do reply to this post, and I will get back to you with more details. No problem if you're not interested. Thanks for your time!

Hey godewey,

We definitely do not plan to discuss recent movies so that will not be a problem. Thanks for agreeing to join us. I will message you soon contacting you where our initial meeting place will be. Keep out an eye for that notification! Thanks again.

Hahahaha. There is no ceremony or secret handshake planned as yet, but we are open to suggestions. :)

And I was browsing the forums, and saw your post in the "European Cinema" forum I think (or some similar forum) and then looked at your history and felt that you would be perfect to join us.

Hi godewey,

I just opened a thread named "Film Discusion Group. Let's Discuss!" in the "Video" forum under the "Film Talk" category in which we can discuss a possible name for the group and also share ideas on how the group will function, and how we will choose movies for discussion. We would really love it if your shared your opinions with us. Thanks for sticking with this, and I'm sorry for the delay!!
