Movie Reviews of Priceless [Blu-ray]
Movie Review: Worthless...
Summary: 2 Stars
Only time I've ever watched a french comedy & fantasized about the American adaptation of it. The problem here is that the 2 leads have little charm & no chemistry at all together. What wonders Cameron Diaz or Natalie Portman could do with the role of Irene. There's nothing intrinsically wrong with the actors themselves. They're just miscast, (she starts out looking cute & sexy but quickly turns scruffy mean-spirited; he just looks vapid, dopey & lost) misdirected & working with flat outdated material.
Now the sets & costumes, otoh, are to die for....
Summary of Priceless [Blu-ray]
On the French Riviera, nothing comes cheap. And when it comes to men, Irene has very rich taste. One very confusing night, she is duped at her own game. Her knight in shining armor turns out to have no shine at all. Irene, however, is the woman of Jean's dreams. The only way to win her heart back is to turn the tables on her. Audrey Tautou (The Da Vinci Code, Ameli?) stars in a romantic comedy that proves true love is PRICELESS.Priceless provides a sweet and sour look at the world of the super-rich. Jean (The Valet's Gad Elmaleh) works at a luxury hotel on the French Riviera. His opposite number, Ir?ne (Am?lie's Audrey Tautou), lives off wealthy men, like elderly benefactor Jacques (Vernon Dobtcheff). While staying at Jean's Biarritz hotel, Ir?ne meets the bartender, mistakes him for a guest, and plies her considerable charms. Flattered, Jean neglects to tell her the truth, and they spend a drunken evening together. The next day, she's gone. The only trace of her presence: a discarded paper umbrella. A year passes, and Ir?ne returns with Jacques, who dumps her when he find out about the cheating, so she bilks Jean out of everything he owns before disappearing again. Wealthy widow Madeleine (Marie-Christine Adam) offers to takes care of Jean's debts--for a price. And just like that, he's sunk to Ir?ne's level. The next time she sees him, she quips, "Now we're equals." So, instead of teaching her the value of legitimate work, Ir?ne teaches Jean how to play Madeleine like a violin. Following in the footsteps of Pierre Salvadori's Apr?s Vous, which centered around a suicidal sommelier, Priceless is unexpectedly melancholy for a comedy. Like the couple in Breakfast at Tiffany's, Jean and Ir?ne are essentially two lost souls. Ir?ne may be an icier creature than Audrey Hepburn's Holly Golightly, but Salvadori finds a satisfying way to tie a pretty bow on this somewhat prickly package and, naturally, the scenery is ravishing. --Kathleen C.
