Tous les Matins du Monde

Tous les Matins du Monde (1991) starring Jean-Pierre Marielle, Gerard Depardieu, Anne Brochet, Guillaume Depardieu. French film (in French, with English subtitles) about the relationship between two 17th-century musicians who specialized in playing the viol. The movie was a smash hit in France, but I fear it loses somewhat in the translation. Plus, the only music on the soundtrack is cello music, which I've never particularly cared for. It's a very well made film, about a subject that doesn't much interest me. If you love cello music and don't mind reading subtitles, this movie may very well be for you. Grade: B
