The director builds a fun universe, unprejudiced and so far from this world that it even seems lie. [Full Review in Spanish]

Knightley excels -- Colette's growing confidence is entirely believable, precisely because she's never a complete walkover, even at the beginning. Her blossoming as an independent woman and as a writer feels like a natural progression.

Cinematographer Giles Nuttgens' use of highly-reflective surfaces is a revelation, and Thomas Adès' lush score hits a melodramatic high note.

The figure of Sidonie Gabrielle-Colette provides enough dramatic components so that the director can execute his operation without too much of a struggle. [Full Review in Spanish]

Westmoreland keeps the material from becoming melodramatic or overwrought, although he often relies on the overactive score to ratchet up the dramatic tension from which he tends to shy away.

There's more going on in Colette than tame hagiography; the results are happily vibrant, even if the sexual inequities depicted remain grimly pertinent.

COLETTE is the rare film that overcomes a personal malaise [for historical biopics]. Skillful cinematography, excellent performances, and a willingness not to sanitize things are all to the good in this effort.

Here's a movie with Keira Knightley that really does merit the sequel treatment.

Colette becomes an intelligent discourse on how - in a patriarchal society - the genius of talented women is not easily recognized, but, on the contrary, tends to be invisible. [Full review in Spanish]

This isn't Oscar-worthy material but it's the kind of solid art house motion picture that was popular during the 1990s and whose occasional reappearance in the 2010s is always welcome.

Westmoreland's Paris is scrumptiously decadent - and seedy - as Colette navigates the city's eclectic, gossipy social scene.
