Stephen Holden of The New York Times says, "Marion Cotillard's feral portrait of the French singer Edith Piaf as a captive wild animal hurling herself at the bars of her cage is the most astonishing immersion of one performer into the body and soul of another I have encountered in a film." This description is dead on and throbbing with realism. You cannot help being touched by this movie be it the music or the tragic life of Piaf. It is a must see. I can actually brag that I saw the movie on our flight back from Paris before it's NY debut this week unless it's a re-release. In any event, it's worth seeing the movie and eventually buying the DVD and Piaf's cd's.
