Completely agree with all of the above. Of course the French films of yesteryear were toute autre chose. Can you imagine the life of Piaf in the hands of a Marcel Carné? I would line up for that.

My impression was that it was tedious but tolerable only because of the great Edit Piaf songs and the brilliant acting of Marion Cotillard. The overused jumping from present to past and back became annoying. After watching innumerable French films it seems they all merge together. Wonderful cinematography interspersed with dense and vacuous dialog masquerading as intellectual profundity. I, too, watched Le Vie en Rose early this week.
