Review of The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964) by Reko U — 02 Nov 2008
Don't let the bright colours fool you. This is a gutsy and reassuringly French take on the musical and it will probably apeal more to non-fans of the genre. The absolute and somewhat paradoxal commitment to both sung delivery and social realism is absolutely radical by U.
S. standards.
