Gainsbourg: A Heroic Life (2010)


This was my introduction to Serge Gainsbourg; a musical pioneer. I'd like to understand French for one more reason now, to truly enjoy Gainsbourg's beautiful music. The subtitles provide a nice showcase of Serge Gainsbourgs work. As for the film itself, Joann Sfar is a name you should remember as he is the man responsible for creating this beautiful piece of cinema. This film is a true work of art. Sfar's directing and story telling are a fantastic style all his own. Almost like a fairy tale for adults. Beautiful to watch, beautiful to hear, and beautiful to understand. Eric Elmosnino's acting is superb. This film delivers the whole package.

10/10

VERDICT: WATCH IT OF COURSE.
