Oh my Goodness what a film

Rating: 10/10 (24 April 2013)

La Mome is one of the greatest non-us films in the decade.It is about the life of one of the greatest French singers Edith Piaf portrayed by a very talented and very beautiful woman named Marion Cotillard.Of course other great French actors play such as Gerard Departieu,Emmanuelle Seigner,Sylvie Testud and many others.
The film starts and ends with the same scene,showing Edith Piaf sining on stage.It starts from the age of 9 where she was raised in her Grandma's house and then later at a circus where by accidentally she finds out her secret gift her voice.Then we see her in the 30s and 40s how she developed as an artist,her great love that she never managed to see,her daughter who died very young and her deal she had with cancer which in the end it killed her.The last scene she is shown performing the beautiful song ''Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien'' in my opinion one of her greatest songs.
Excellent film i do not wonder why it won so many awards with top the two winning academy awards for best acting role for Marion Cotillard and best make-up.This film truly shows what the European Cinema can achieve.
