Review of Coco Before Chanel (2009) by Kelly L — 25 Nov 2009
I love Coco Chanel and I love Audrey Tautou, so this combination was bound to be pure bliss, and it was. She plays the part perfectly. However, I do share the opinion of many others, the film is too focused on Coco's love life, whereas her relationships with men is the least interesting thing about her.
She is not a woman who should be defined by that particular aspect of her life, as she is so much more than that. But although that was a bit of a letdown, I still enjoyed it tremendously and I love the way she was portrayed.
When you cast Tautou, you don't need any more actors for she will carry the film entirely, and she didn't disappoint in this one.
