Leave your thoughts about The Umbrellas of Cherbourg.
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Chris HicksTrue, it's soap opera plotting, but the story and characters are so sweet and compelling that only the hardest heart will fail to be won over. |
| Film4Fran HortopA truly unique and wonderful film from a director who stands apart in the French cinema canon. |
| Antagony & EcstasyTim BraytonA number of different factors raise this absurdly simple scenario to the level of highest excellence, but the chief among them is surely Michel Legrand's iconic score. |
| Edinburgh U Film SocietyKeith H. BrownEverything in Umbrellas is incredibly bright and colourful...Yet, behind this surface, a rather more cynical worldview is apparent. |
| Jam! MoviesLouis B. HobsonEasily one of the most romantic stories captured on celluloid. |
| Boulder WeeklyThomas DelapaYou must love musicals and sentimental romance to enjoy Jacques Demy's all-singing film opera featuring the grand melodies of composer Michel Legrand. |
| BBC.comTom DawsonDeneuve is luminously beautiful throughout, looking fabulously chic even in a maternity dress. |
| Video-Reviewmaster.comSteve CrumModern (for 1964) opera-musical in French is one of a kind. |
| Urban CinefileUrban Cinefile CriticsThis bitter-sweet love story set to Michel Legrand's music from writer director Jacques Demy marks the film debut of the then 20 year old Catherine Deneuve, whose delicate beauty and screen presence has enchanted the world ever since |
| At the Movies (Australia)Margaret PomeranzIt's so pink this film. If you want a selection of wallpapers to choose from, this film has just about every single one. I think it's lovely. |
