Dahan's portrait begins with Piaf's stay in a brothel as a young girl. Left to the care of her grandmother (who runs the place) after her father pulls her away from a narcissistic mother, Piaf undergoes significant health problems and grows up to sing on the street in lieu of outright prostitution. The film pulses along with the usual biopic rhythms, with pivotal moments in the life of Piaf (played as an adult by Marion Cotillard) turning up regularly only to be smacked aside by the unseen hand of perpetual misfortune. There's the impresario (Gerard Depardieu) who recognizes Piaf's great but raw talent only to have a run-in with the criminal element around her. There's the heavyweight fighter (Marcel Cerdan) who becomes the love of Piaf's life but can't be with her. Drug addiction, random car accidents, tax problems, you name it, it's all here, topped by an unnerving revelation that pops up in La Vie en Rose's final moments. After awhile, with such a concentration of bad news squeezed into 140 minutes, one begins to wish Dahan had taken a more expansive approach to Piaf's life and times. But the film is never less than interesting, and the lead performance by Cotillard is often astonishing. --Tom Keogh Release NotePicturehouse and HBO Films present a critically-acclaimed biopic about the legendary international singing icon Edith Piaf whose voice and talent captivated the world. Starring award-winner Marion Cotillard (A Very Long Engagement A Good Year) in an astonishing performance the film is a portrait of a remarkable artist born into poverty who survived using the only gift she had ? her voice. Piaf?s tragic life was a constant battle to sing and survive to live and love with no regrets.Running Time: 141 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DOCUMENTARIES/BIOGRAPHY UPC: 026359441226 Manufacturer No: 94412 Customer Reviews for "La Vie en Rose (Extended Version) (DVD)"Most Recent Customer Reviews  La Vie, February 1, 2008

The Story of Piaf is priceless and this movie captures the elegance and grace
that it should be expressed through.
