TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film

Wordiezett So much average

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

jessy zaki La Vie En Rose, the movie, is one of the most depressing movies I've ever seen, being a biopic of a woman who slept in the streets passing through tragedies all through her life and stood on stage at her latest days to sing Je Ne Regrette Rien. The movie belongs to Martion Cotillard. Actually she is the strongest point in the movie, and it's her best role till date. No wonder she got an Oscar award and became the second non-English-speaking actress to have such award. Everything is suitable for the movie's dark theme,character and era, being it the makeup, the lights and the background score, which I liked how it is used during certain scenes near the end. In short..it's excellent and recommended for everyone

saraccan Amazing acting by Marion Cotillard. I wasnt familiar with Edith Piaf's story before so it was cool to learn about her life. Turns out it was a sad and eventful one.The movie itself is actually sometimes boring but there are also things that happen that makes you want to see till the end. Its a biographical movie about the French singer Edith Piaf. Even if you dont know her name you'll recognise her songs and voice.

SnoopyStyle This is a biopic of Édith Piaf (Marion Cotillard) told in a non-linear manner. The movie starts with her collapsing during a 1959 New York performance. She is a young girl crying in the streets of 1918 Paris. Her father is away at war and her singing mother abandons her. He returns home to take the sick Édith away to his mother who runs a brothel in Normandy. She is befriended by maternal hooker Titine. His father returns again to take her away to work in the circus. They quit the circus and she starts singing in the streets. Nightclub owner Louis Leplée (Gérard Depardieu) hires her giving her the name Piaf until his murder. This is a low point as the public turns against her and she is forced into a convent by her mother. Next, she is in post-war New York falling for boxer Marcel Cerdan. It is a troubled exuberant life of ups and downs.Marion Cotillard is incredibly powerful acting this wild life. She delivers on every point. It's a masterful performance. The movie itself is a long-running biopic. The story isn't able to distill into a simple idea. It's a lot of sections and vignettes. The most controversial and powerful should be her years in occupied Europe working under Nazi rule. Oddly, the movie seems to skip over that important part of her life. Maybe, there are uncomfortable rumors that the movie refuses to touch. Overall, Cotillard is so powerful that any problems fade into the background.

gavin6942 An un-chronological look at the life of the Little Sparrow, Édith Piaf (1915-1963). Her mother is an alcoholic street singer, her father a circus performer, her paternal grandmother a madam.As of now (2015), Edith Piaf has been the focus of a number of films. But it would be hard to say any are better than this one, and the reason is simple: they cast the right actress. Another well-known actress was named as a potential choice, but Marion Cotillard was the only correct one -- she brings a power to the screen that few can. (She may also be the only non-English speaking actress to achieve wide acclaim in the United States).Although I know nothing about Piaf and cannot say if this is accurate, it is certainly well presented and a joy to watch.
