Michelle Pfeiffer and Rupert Friend make a lovely, beautifully costumed duo in Chéri, a romantic drama set in the 1920s. From the trailer it doesn't look so much like a drama as it does a sweet, funny little period piece, but apparently the story takes place in Paris "where the son of a courtesan retreats into a fantasy world after being forced to end his relationship with the older woman who educated him in the ways of love." It looks like a nice enough movie, but so far I'm mostly mesmerized by the silks and lace, pearls and hats on display in the trailer.
Chéri opens June 26. To check out the pretty trailer, read more.

Looks like a silly little diversion -- not a must-see, perhaps for the netflix queue -- but those costumes, ooh la la! Rupert Friend looks positively scrumptious! (I actually just played the trailer twice to get a better gander of him, teehee!)

I love the novel by Colette. In a case of art imitating life, a few years after Cheri was published, she had an affair with her stepson.
