1952, Québec - Alys Robi, vocalist at the top of her popularity and recognized worldwide, was interned in spite of herself, by her father. Medical authorities prescribe her the only cure for a possible cure: the lobotomy. Under the bright lights of the operating room, Alys sees her 28-year life flash before her eyes. At age 13 she left alone to conquer the big city, Montreal, under the name Alys Robi. She first worked at the National Theatre with "La Poune" who takes her under her wing and then joined the cast of John Grimaldi. She met Olivier Guimond, her first love. Ambitious, she leaves to live a professional and romantic relationship with Lucio Asgotini who will eventually break her heart. Alys Robi charm a whole generation with her Latin rhythms such as "Tico Tico" and "Besame Mucho". She has conquered the world and Hollywood where MGM's desire and the American press call her a "Goddess". Alys Robi embodies the American dream, a story of triumph, glory, love, but also a story that hides a terrible truth that will change everything.

| User ReviewMathieu HA Masterpiece about the life of a tourmented woman! Incredible! |
| User ReviewMi'Nie MUn très bon film sur la vie d'Alys Robi. |
| User ReviewJezzy AA VERY TOUCHING BIOPIC OF THE QUEBEC SENSATION ALYS ROBI. A MUST-SEE. VERY MOTIVATING AND ENTERTAINING. THE REALITY OF SHOWBUSINESS REVEALED. |
| User ReviewThe Freaky FunkyTrès bon! et réel! J,ai beaucoup les chansons! |
| User ReviewSabrina LPascale Bussière est renversante dans ce rôle! |
| User ReviewPrivate UPascale Buissière est excellente, comme d'habitude. Je ne savais même pas qu'elle chantait. C'est un film touchant. Alys Roby en a vu de toutes les couleurs... |
| User ReviewSarah FWonderful movie of Denise Filiatrault and a incredible Pascale Bussière. Very profound, big drama. |
| User ReviewPascal LBien, mais le casting de la série TV des années 90 était mieux |
| User ReviewRoger FMoyen. Les acteurs font bien leur job, mais je n'aime pas la structure du récit et le montage. Dommage, ça aurais pût être quelque chose de bien... |
| User ReviewMarc-André RA pretty average biopic on a wartime celebrity who went from child stardom in Quebec to becoming an international sensation, only to have it all collapse from a long-ignored mental illness (Comparisons to Britney Spears aren't too far off). This film, however, omits a dramatically significant portion of her life - after 1952, Alys Robi returned to the stage, but couldn't find financers because it was believed that she was crazy, even though she'd been lobotomized (And without the frightful side effects, I might add). This would have provided a far more interesting end to the story then what we were given. |
