Diva: Dödligt intermezzo

Diva

Beineix's Parisian love affair with image and sound, presented here in all its Widescreen glory, plays like the cinematic equivalent of Vogue.

Here is an exhilarating film made for no better purpose than to surprise and fascinate.

...particularly strong contributions fromcinematographer Philippe Rousselot and composer Vladimir Cosma, whose simple,gorgeous piano score carries much of the atmospheric load.

...the movie's mad excitement hinges entirely on the pleasure to be had inmoving our eye from one gorgeously composed stage set of artifice to another.
