Les Chansons d'Amour
Okay, so I’m not a fan of musicals, but this French film intrigued me having heard a few of the songs from it. Les Chansons d’Amour is a decent film, though I felt the musical numbers rather detracted from the plot. The complex relationships of the characters made for an interesting plot, although sometimes the love expressed by the characters seemed a tad shallow. Perhaps if the film had been a drama rather than a musical the plot could have been thickened a little. Having said that I actually liked the songs, although Ludivine Sagnier’s singing voice is a little annoying. Not amazing, but an enjoyable film to watch.
