La Vie en Rose


Tonight I went to the neighbourhood theater and saw the Edith Piaf movie, La Vie En Rose. Firstly, I think it is wonderful to be able to say that there is a neighbourhood theatre; a small place, still clinging to its 1930's bones. Secondly, I'm pleased to say that the movie was very, very good. Not being in the know with the recent Oscar awards, I didn't realize that the movie did so well. What an extraordinary range for the lead actress, Marion Cotillard, to take the figure of Edith Piaf from a young woman to the final moments of her life. Two thumbs up!
