La Vie En Rose

Frenchimpressionista loves French movies and rates La Vie En Rose as a three Camembert winner! (Unlike most movie reviewers, Frenchimpressionista uses an inverse system of odor to quality of film. The smellier the cheese, the better the film!)

The film stars Marion Cotillard as Edith Piaf. Her performance is brilliant, as it ranges from young adulthood to old age. If you saw her in A Good Year with Russell Crowe, you will find her appearance unrecognizable as she transforms herself physically and spritiually into the tragic and transcendental Edith Piaf. A supporting role by Gerard Depardieu sparkles as well.

A great film, surely not to be missed by anyone who loves Paris and Edith.
