The biographical film "Life of Roses" tells the legendary life of the original singer and French national treasure singer Edith Piaf. Her stage name "Piaf" is a slang term for "Sparrow" in Paris. This name is not only because of her open personality and good voice, but also because she is only 146 cm tall. Before the film's director Olivier Dahan (Olivier Dahan), Claude Lelouch (Claude Lelouch) made a film about Piaf in 1983, called "Mo Forgetting This Life" (Edith and Marcel), it's about Piaf and boxer Marcel's love affair. In "Life of Roses", this love story has also become a key chapter of the film.
"Life of the Rose" lasts 140 minutes, and it fully reproduces Piaf’s drifting childhood, from the girl who sings on the street and the girl who sings in the bar to the star who is officially on the stage and the charming singing voice, to the emotional frustration and deteriorating old age, to the dying. Occasion. Daang successfully disrupted all stages of Piafé's life. For a while he was still ignorant and confused as a child, and then he jumped into an old age with stiff limbs, creating a fleeting sorrow and joy in life. In order not to make the audience feel ambiguous, the director explained the time and place in words; as long as you pay close attention to it, the story can still be strung together, and you can see Piaf's life path from France to the United States. As a clue, it is naturally Piafé's songs from different periods. The special meanings and accidental catches have all made Piafé on the stage.
Piaf has only stayed in the world for 48 years. This is most likely due to her unrestrained injection of morphine, drunken indulgence, and profligacy of health, leading to an overdraft of her life. But the reason why Piaf is Piaf is because of her unrepeatable paranoia, or, as critics say, a kind of "French gene." Fortunately, in addition to "Life of Roses", she also left many popular songs. In this movie, you will also hear famous songs such as "A Praise of Love" and "I Have No Regrets".
In the film, Piaf met the legendary actress Marlene Dietrich (Marlene Dietrich), and was a little lost with excitement. In fact, there are many intersections between her and movies. For example, the French wizard Jean Cocteau is a good friend of her and has edited plays for her. What is even more emotional is that after hearing the news of his friend's death, Cocteau left on the same day.
As the opening film of the Berlin Film Festival in 2007, "Life of Roses" got an amazing box office after it was released in France. This may be after Piaf’s state funeral in 1963-thousands of people took to the streets to see her off-and people once again used actions to miss this "little sparrow" and her ageless singing.
