Review of La Vie en Rose (2007) by Jennifer D — 20 Jun 2010

I feel like this was the female, French version of Capote. Both drilling, hard biopics that were utterly and completely career defining for their leads. Brilliantly acted. Brilliant. It was confusing at points with the time line and were exactly we were in her life, but still the heart of the story was there. I've also got to give a serious nod to wardrobe and make up in this film, it was just done so beautifully.

Lastly, I've got to give props to the world's most amazingly long dolly shot. It goes from 1:42:40 to 1:47. Ah mazing.
