Terrific cinematography, sets, costumes, and musical score highlight this captivating, factually based, well-acted, risqué, 111-minute biopic film in which talented, smitten, French teenager Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette (Keira Knightley) leaves her parents (Fiona Shaw and Robert Pugh) in the countryside in 1893 to marry charismatic, well-respected novelist Henry ‘Willy' Gauthier-Villars (Dominic West), and when money becomes tight in Paris, she begins to ghostwrite her autobiographical stories for her controlling husband which become instantaneous sensational bestsellers, and years later falls in love with a transgendered woman (Denise Gough) after estranged from her husband and becomes the most celebrated writer in French literature penning more than thirty novels.
