Chéri

Striking sets, costumes, and cinematography cannot make up for a peculiar plot and unsympathetic and shallow characters in this slow-paced, weird, dull, disappointing, romantic film about an aging, but still beautiful, lonely courtesan (Michelle Phillips) who begins a relationship with the spoiled, jaded son (Rupert Friend) of a retired, colorful prostitute (Kathy Bates) who causes discord when she arranges his marriage 6 years later to a beautiful 18-year-old girl (Feliciity Jones) in 1920 Paris.
