About

Notorious Woman is a 1974 BBC miniseries about the life of French novelist George Sand (Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin), starring Rosemary Harris in the title role, and focusing on her scandalous life, career, and relationships, particularly with composer Frédéric Chopin. The seven-episode drama, written by Harry W. Junkin and directed by Waris Hussein, won a Primetime Emmy for Harris's performance and explored Sand's defiance of 19th-century conventions, including her male attire and public cigar smoking.
