If you don't know French, you miss out on a lot. Most of the scenes that involve French have no subtitle options. It's frustrating! I would have given a higher rating if it weren't for that. The sets, the story, the acting...all good!! It's just that pivotal parts are moot if you don't understand French. Some of the French IS subtitled but clearly important scenes are often not.
It's a rather long movie at over two hours. I do feel the story was well developed as well as all the characters. My favorite parts of the whole movie were the sets and the costumes. Academy award quality! Only the "magician's" make up was bad, in my opinion. But the love story is fairy-tale-esque. Truly worth the watch (if you understand French)!
