| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
It is turn of the century in Belle Epoque Paris and a scandalous
romp is underfoot. The sensational tale begins as the ravishing
Lea (Michelle Pfeiffer) contemplates retirement from her renowned
stature as Paris’s most envied seductress to the rich
and famous. Her plans are cut short when she is approached
by a former courtesan and arch rival, the barb-throwing gossip
Charlotte Peloux (Kathy Bates), who encourages Lea to teach
her disaffected 19 year-old son — a bon vivant nicknamed
“Chéri” (Rupert Friend) — a thing
or two about women. The resulting escapades involve power
struggles over sex, money, age and society – and unexpectedly,
love itself — as a boy who refuses to grow up collides
with a woman who realizes she cannot stay young forever.
Director Stephen Frears (“The Queen”) and screenwriter
Christopher Hampton (“Atonement”) reunite (“Dangerous
Liaisons”) to playfully bring Colette’s unconventional
romance, CHERI, to the screen.
