Historical Drama
DVD
C-
A miscast Knightley fails to show (at least in the first quarter hour), the wit, vivacity, and naughtiness of the title character, and in fact the movie seems like it should've been called Willy, considering how much screen time Colette's unappealing husband gets. Still, the period (1893, the same as the opening of Coco avant Chanel) details are well done, and I appreciate that they threw a cat onscreen in the opening. Wash Westmoreland directed.
