Historia
Danièle Dubroux est une réalisatrice, scénariste et actrice française, née le 4 septembre 1947 à Paris.
Danièle Dubroux a un parcours atypique dans le cinéma français puisqu'il y a relativement peu de cinéastes, et encore moins de femmes, ayant fait de la critique (pendant près de dix ans aux Cahiers du cinéma) avant de faire des longs métrages. (Certains critiques qu'elle a croisés aux Cahiers du cinéma à cette période ont eu le même parcours, Pascal Bonitzer ou Olivier Assayas). Elle a aussi cette singularité d'être actrice de ses propres films, tout en n'étant pas une actrice professionnelle.
Ses films sont très marqués par la psychanalyse (discipline qu'elle a étudiée par intérêt sans vouloir en faire son métier). Films les plus marquants : Border-line ; Le journal du séducteur (inspiré du livre du même titre du philosophe danois Søren Kierkegaard).

When she lands up in the middle of nowhere, Séréna, a rather thoughtless young woman, is supposed to marry Hubert, a country squire she came into contact with through the classifieds in "Le Chasseur Français", a magazine for hunters. But she gets to know Roland, a bachelor farmer who develops an instant burning passion for her. Prepared to do anything for her, he goes as far as to holdup banks to secure the good life she longs for. Although she confesses (wrongly) that she suffers from AIDS, he is in no way discouraged. Séréna accepts to marry Roland but on her wedding night she balks at taking the "midnight exam". She runs away and meets Antoine, a married writer, who hides her in the attic of his house, without his wife knowing it.
