Audience Reviews for Colonel Chabert

  • Feb 09, 2008
    First review! Great adaptation of Balzac's famous novel with beautiful visuals and outstanding performances from Gérard Depardieu and Fabrice Luchini. Not much to say about it, specifically: acting, cinematography, story, writing - they're all very good, making for a rock-solid period piece which was nominated for six of France's highest prizes for cinema (the César awards).
