Truly Dreadful Film

Boring, long, and too preachy.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

There is a scene halfway into the film, in which its women are sitting before microphones, around a table in a darkened room, reading from the play, that is one of the most lyrical Shakespearean sequences I've seen on film, a chamber comedy in the key of chance.THE PRINCESS OF France is, as a piece, like that, music and allusion more than plot. Piñeiro grasps the poetics of repetition, filming one scene, not of the play, but of the actors' lives, three times, before finding a strand to pull forward. Love's Labour's Lost is heard only in parts, suggestive and incomplete. How it reflects the lives of the young people who play the roles in it isn't spelled out, but they live in a world in which it exists, vibrantly. Shakespeare's story is about men who have foresworn women; it seems, if anything, to be the opposite in the lives of Piñeiro's actors. They emerge as a sort of generational portrait, of the smart and talented seeking a way by art through a world of scant possibility. READ MORE: http://osburnt.com/the-princess-of-France/
