Review of Chéri (2009) by John935 — 23 Jan 2016
Underrated. Michelle Pfeiffer is great in it. Rupert Friend is so-so. The film adapts 2 novels: Cheri and The Last of Cheri. Some have commented that the sequel gets short shrift in the film and they may have a point (I have not read the sequel).
However, this is a gorgeous production and it provides a fascinating glimpse into the culture of successful but aging courtesans in late 19th century France. Not for everyone, of course, but I recommend watching the trailer and deciding for yourself.
