Our take

Arguably the film that introduced Marion Cotillard to the world, this superb biopic celebrates and expresses the bountiful yet tragic life of French musician Édith Piaf. An immersive non-chronological structure guided by the razor sharp—Oscar®-winning!—central performance make for staggering cinema.
