R-VFC: The Singer/Quand j’étais chanteur




My second film at the Rendez-Vous with French Cinema 2007 was The Singer/Quand j’étais chanteur. The synopsis was somewhat interesting, and Gérard Depardieu is a superb actor, so I went. In this film he plays a small town dance hall singer. He did all his own singing--which is just about the only thing to recommend this mess of a movie. That, and looking at his co-star Cécile De France, one of those few women who can cut their hair very short and still look absolutely gorgeous.
