A new 1920s Romance

I am so excited about this new movie Cheri, just look at the gorgeous locations and the costumes and cars are to die for. Cheri is an upcoming film adaptation of the 1920s novel by French author Colette. The film is scheduled to be released in the US June 26th 2009 and is already out in quite a few countries.



This romantic drama is set in Paris, and focuses on the aftermath of a romance between a middle-aged woman (Michelle Pfeiffer) and a young wealthy son of a courtesan. The young man retreats into a fantasy world after being forced to end his relationship with the older woman who educated him in the ways of love.

Is it odd that I really want to see this movie only to drool over the costumes? About 12 seconds into the trailer on imbd Michelle Pfeiffers character is wearing the most gorgeous and I mean the most gorgeous large black hat with an elaborate cut out design. I want that hat so bad! I found a picture of the hat though it looks much better in the trailer for some odd reason.

I hope you enjoy all of the lovely costumes!

  6. Oh I can certainly relate to you, there have been movies (specially on TCM) where all I do is say, "Honey, did you see that settee/bed/chandelier etc..."
    This looks like a great flick.

  7. Sort of scared to watch this since I love the books and have a different image of Lea in my head . . . someone a little more French, not Michelle Pfeiffer! But the costumes do look lovely.
