'The Umbrellas of Cherbourg'


It took a little while for me to ask myself: "So, are they going to sing the entire movie?"

The answer: Yes.

The film actually lags for a little bit at the beginning but I thought the final 30 minutes or so were excellent story telling. I'm sure there's some deep message buried somewhere in there and without a doubt umbrellas are some kind of symbol (maybe, you never know when fate's going to rain shit on you ... so you might as well have an umbrella ... or a rich guy to marry).
