Cherie

Michelle Pfeiffer

Interesting film taken from some writings by Colette.

An aging courtesan falls in love with a handsome, callow 19 year old...the son of another of her colleagues. She's about 50. They canoodle for six years but then outside forces conspire against their plan for eternal bliss.

Well shot and assembled. Nice performance by MP. The kid was sulky, whiny and a bit insufferable. It did provide a window into the life of this class of women at the turn of the last century. Easily held my interest.
