Review of Colette (2018) by Dascinema — 17 Oct 2018
The movie is good, but the performances are great, particularly Keira Knightley's performance. The movie takes you through a decade and a half of Colette's life and what an interesting life it is. From shy, quiet farm girl to a celebrity to a self-assured woman exploring her sexuality, Knightley is ferocious in making Colette come to life and you can feel it.
It truly is one of the greatest performances of this year and it should earn her another academy award nomination. Then there is Dominic West, who also gives a terrific performance, making you loathe and like Willy at the same time.
The movie is beautiful, the passions between husband and wife, wife and her lovers are strong, and some of it leads to comedic situations. The only drawback I found was that the movie was a bit slow, but otherwise, it was a well-done movie with clever dialogue.
