Three colors : Blue

(Trois Couleurs: Bleu)

1993

 

FEATURE:

Julie loses her family in a tragic accident and decides to radically change her world; she leaves behind any memories of her husband, a renowned composer, and moves into a Paris flat to contemplate life. Slow-moving drama is borderline interesting but remains more a showcase for its leading lady than anything else. First of Polish director Kieslowski's "Three Color" trilogy probing life in contemporary France: BLUE/"Liberty"; WHITE/"Equality"; RED/"Fraternity."
