LA VIE EN ROSE

"Life in Pink"
The English translation of " La Vie en Rose", signature song of French singer Edith Piaf, ........ It sounds to me like a wonderful way to begin my year.

If you have not yet seen this incredible film, please do not hesitate. Chronicling the tragically short life of French icon Edith Piaf, it will make you want to travel more, do more, live more because you don't know when life can be cut short. Edith surely fit a large life into her 47 years. You really have no excuse not to indulge yourself, as the film is now on DVD. The story is heartrendingly beautiful, funny and sad. The acting is brilliant. The Music is, well, incomparably and classically French. C'est magnifique!
