At the festival in La Rochelle, they once decided to arrange a retrospective of films with the participation of Juliette Binoche, and the actress, having previously revised these paintings, involuntarily overestimated her work. The top, in her opinion, was the film "Three colors: blue", after it (downward), "Lovers with Pont-Nef" and "Rendez-vous". This picture, created by the French director Andre Teshine in 1985, surprised Juliette herself with depth, demanding for her game: before the picture seemed to her passing work.
Well, after this assessment, the film is worth watching. Its plot, at first glance, is unpretentious: in Paris, dreaming of a career as an actress, a young provincial Nina comes. In the capital, she meets a young actor who hopes to find himself and a director who will reveal all his abilities. When the director is found, a tragic triangle forms: Nina will be fascinated by Kanten, and Polo will mindlessly fall in love with Nina. close
