So a few nights ago, I was looking for a movie to watch on Netflix and I stumbled across this gem. I had never even heard about it before, but man was it ever a pleasant surprise. I haven't seen a film like this in quite some time, and it was so refreshing!
I don't want to give too much away, but it's a film that takes place in 1958 and is about a girl named Rose who leaves her home town wanting more in life, and becomes a secretary for a handsome Frenchman named Louis. He quickly realizes that she is a whiz with a typewriter and trains her to hopefully become the world's fastest typist.
From the opening credits I knew this was a movie right up my alley. From the colors to the font, I was completely hooked.
The costumes in this film were spot on, and this dress was clearly no exception!
Such a dreamy house!
Seriously, how cute are they?
How fabulous does this look? The Eiffel tower, the poodle, the scooter and the cars!
Her iconic nails to match her color-coded typewriter keys!
Love this scene so much!
What are you waiting for? Go watch this film - it's on Netflix right now too!
Thanks! You are convincing - although I´m looking normally no films I think this is a try worth :)

I loved Orla Kiely's Populaire inspired typing pool installation at LFW! http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/news/video-orla-kielys-typing-pool-presentation-for-london-fashion-week-8499524.html
ReplyDeleteStill need to see this!
Isn't it a wonderful film?! I had to drag my husband to see it, but even he liked it. Roman Duris is one of my favorite actors.
ReplyDeleteThe lead looks a little like Mia Wasikowska.
ReplyDeleteThis film looks amazing! I got so excited to watch it but my Canadian Netflix said it was unavailable :(
ReplyDeleteI watched this film in open air cinema on August and it was wonderful. The view of river and the ancient monuments of Prague and crucieble of limonade in my hand. Best time :)
ReplyDeleteLooks gorgeous and isn't your normal movie! Netflix is amazing at allowing people to find things they never knew existed. Thanks for the suggestion.
ReplyDeletethanks for the suggestion! I always love it when someone tells me of a good film. It looks brilliant! Evi
