Review by John Delia One of the most stunning films this year turns out to be foreign and in black and white, but the charming,
Sweet, charming and touching My Afternoons with Margueritte has what it takes when it comes to entertainment value. What makes the film so good comes from the acting of Girard Depardieu, Gisèle Casadesus and fine directing by Jean Becker. If you prefer a film that has excellent acting with a loving script then My Afternoons with Margueritte is your French strawberry croissant.
Last year’s Coco Before Chanel now continues with a new lead actress and very brazen content. Beautifully photographed and directed, Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky is a gem for the art lover and film buff. If you have been smitten by Chanel’s rise from rags to riches, then this is a must see film.
