Portuguese Review of Gainsbourg (vie héroïque)

Throughout the short life of this blog, I've discovered that Serge Gainsbourg has a surprisingly huge fan-base in Brazil, and many fans have somehow found their way here to the blog. So, my Portuguese-speaking friends, este post é para você (this post is for you).



Film critic and @GainsbourgFilm Twitter follower, Ana Leorne, attended a screening of Gainsbourg (vie héroïque) last week in France and penned this review for the Portuguese website Rascunho. In it, she praises the actors portrayals of the principal characters and explains how the film becomes much more than a traditional biopic through Joann Sfar's use of an "imaginary surreal universe" and characters like La Gueule to tell Gainsbourg's story.  To read Ana's full review in Portuguese, clique aqui.  To read the translation in French, cliquez ici, and in English, click here.
