Re: La Vie en Rose (2007)
This film looks and sounds great in terms of set design, costumes, performances, and singing, but the screenplay let me down as an unengaging piece of writing, but it still recommended viewing just for Marion Cotillard's Oscar-winning performance as she runs the gamut of emotions and performance across the acting spectrum. Her lip-syncing is dead-on, you never get the notion that she's not singing the songs coming out of Edith Piaf's mouth, it's just spot-on perfect. I had no idea Cotillard had the range to pull off her performance, but she does.
I give the film itself 3 stars, and a grade of B, but Marion Cotillard gets an A+ for her performance.
