Review:


The troubled life of French songbird Edith Piaf, who died in 1963
at forty-eight, had enough drama to fill a dozen movies. Her
upbringing in a brothel, followed by bruising encounters with sex,
booze and drugs, created a voice that touched the world with hits
such as "La Vie en Rose," "Milord" and "Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien."
Somehow Olivier Dahan's impressionistic heartbreaker of a movie
gets it all in. And Marion Cotillard, lip-syncing Piaf's songs and
digging into her soul with gale-force urgency, gives a performance
for the ages.



Rating: 3 Stars
