European Cinema : FLORENCE FOSTER JENKINS (2016) vs MARGUERITE (2015)
Re: FLORENCE FOSTER JENKINS (2016) vs MARGUERITE (2015)
Having watched both films, I think you are a being a bit harsh in your commentary. The films are based on a true story regarding a talentless passion for singing ( by Florence & Marguerite)amidst an environment of naïve deceptions played out by those who they trusted around them. Such a story had to be mixed with both a comedy of the absurd with the pathos of the ultimate obvious finales. I thought both films were adequately developed with lead roles performed well by two of cinema's great actors. I think that Streep's performance was less nuanced than Frot's interpretation of the role, which probably suited the different markets where both films would predominantly inhabit. I much preferred the Marguerite version , but felt both films deserve credit for delivering such an unusual true story.
