I am looking forward to this so much! It should be amazing Audrey Tautou was amazing in Priceless and I bet she's fabulous in this!
Typical art house movie women will enjoy.
Good stuff, a must see especially if you like Audrey Tautou,
I couldn't wait to see this movie and while I would agree with some of James Croot's assessment, "closer to Pretty Woman" this movie is DEFINITELY not, "Diane Keating's wardrobe" is immensely more interesting and "the piano score" is really nothing that different to most other piano scores of this genre but this time doing little to evoke my normally over-emotional personality-type! Joanna Hunkin hits the nail on the head when she says this movie is more "laying the foundations for the movie you really want to see..." Half-an-hour more of the final stages might have left me satisfied.
What a strog woman!
Great high quality film making, beautifully shot in Panavision
Enough male content to keep 'man interest' so partners need not be deterred.
Inspiring content
Its a perfect role for Tautou and she makes the movie work. The French make the best movies and this beats most of the rubbish that comes out of the states. Certainly worth seeing...
A focussed and segmental perspective of an innovative and creative woman.
I found this film fascinating Its strength being on the examination of Cocos relationships with both men and women and the losses in her life that gave her the determination to keep going. Then symbolioc internalisation of her love affair with Boy, who she descrbies as "loving more than life itself "was the springboard that escalated her to fame. The direction of the love scenes was compelling, with passion in every frame. I loved this movie and will keep it in my library for ever as it will stay in my mind for some time. What a suffrogette she was and yet what a sensual woman as well. A poignant combination Oscar please Susan
There's a delicacy that you can almost taste in this movie... a whimiscal air probably created by nostaglia.
Tatou is exquisite (as usual) believable as Coco Chanel. Very good child-adult matchup. I didn't feel I was watching a great movie, but a very accurate reference to a whole lot of past's images.
