The Umbrellas Of Cherbourg - 1964 - 8/10
AKA - Les Parapluies de Cherbourg

Star-crossed Geneviève and 20-year-old Guy are desperately in love.
Intoxicating and heady as only the young experience it.
Her mother disapproves, however.
Fate intervenes in the form of Guy’s mandatory military service, and absence.
Poignant love story told entirely in music and song.
Sweeping set design, magnificent use of color.
Aching film, especially for those who had the great love.
Arthouse types, if you have not viewed yet, then you owe yourself.
