The Umbrellas of Cherbourg Reviews

Beautiful. Un peu gossant comment ils chantent/parlent mais les couleurs, les costumes, le thème musical qui revient, sont trop beaux.

Used to love this tune in high school, but when I rewatch the musical now all the singing just gives me a headache—not a big musical fan. I really wanted this to be over the entire time I was watching it.

Incredible feat of filmmaking

The most beautiful thing I have ever seen!!!!!

This is a great film. I love the colors and scenery. I've grown to like musicals more than I did before, but I like them sporadically, and this was entirely a musical. However, as it went on, I truly appreciated the film and the way it wraps up.

7/10

Blinded by the lack of normal dialogue but the technicolor aesthetic was enough to calm me down

Is it okay that my only criticism is that I wished they hadn’t been singing the whole time? Otherwise it was beautiful!

Watched this on Valentine’s Day and now I’m a wreck 😭😭😭😭

rating: ☂️

gorgeous movie and that’s really all it has going for it. i’d be fine with it being a musical if we were actually singing and had distinct songs. but alas.

Best musical

11/29

That was fucking gorgeous!

8.0

Now this is a musical... nothing new, nothing bad, nothing spectacular. It's good, and the message is clear the romanticization of the "forever and ever" not always apply.

If I hadnt promised a coworker Id watch this Id have bailed after the realization that they were singing the dialogue. I stuck with it, they kept singing, and...I kinda liked it

Watched at the British Film Institute with Ed — sold out show (I enjoyed but Ed wanted to leave lol)

9/10 - Didn't think I'd like a musical with singing from beginning to end as much as I did -- in French no less (... also coney was right awol)

4.5/5
