La Vie En Rose Plot
La Vie En Rose Plot
La Vie En Rose is the title in English-speaking territories for La Môme
(French for The Kid), a 2007 French language movie directed by Olivier
Dahan about singer Édith Piaf, starring Marion Cotillard as Piaf. The
movie premiered at the Berlin Film Festival. Co-stars include film
veteran Gérard Depardieu, Sylvie Testud, Emmanuelle Seigner, newcomer
Jean-Pierre Martins and respected character actor Pascal Greggory.
The film presents a fractured and largely non-linear series of key
events from the life of Édith Piaf. Although scenes often jump back and
forth across decades, parts of her childhood take up much of the first
part, and the movie ends with her death, and the performance of what is
perhaps her signature song, Non, je ne regrette rien.
