8 "WONDERFUL" WOMEN - les femmes rule!
5 stars in my book but really this one is not for everyone. it's fun. it's quirky. at times silly. it's catherine deneuve doing slapstick! the women are great and generally gorgeous - i mean "drop dead". Even a "3-dollar Bill" like me would practically cash in my chips just watching Fanny Ardant do a GILDA type "put the blame on mame" type number in her very first scene. yes, it is a musical. no, the songs don't exactly further the plot as they do in good musicals but who cares? often the songs do reveal much about the character singing. it's sooooooo FRENCH. had to watch it again while waiting for the video guy to pick it up. think i'll rent it up again this weekend. you should too.
