92. The Umbrellas of Cherbourg
I mist up every time I even think about it.
It's shot magnificently:the overcast exteriors are counterpointed w/the most wonderful pastel costumes.
The plot is a bittersweet love story set against the war in Algeria.
And it's a musical, but it's not(no spoilers here).
And Catherine Deneuve is stunningly beautiful. She may be the most
beautiful woman in a film ever. IMO.
