Clara Lucianiknown for her smooth voice and charisma on stage, is a pleasant surprise in the role of Lolaa rising actress in 1970s cinema. His interpretation is soft and rich in nuances, revealing a fragility that makes it immediately captivating. In front of her, William Lebghil he plays a disillusioned writer with disarming sincerity.

Each musical sequence is a living painting, where the choreography, although sometimes classical, blends naturally with the narrative. However, some songs suffer from a certain superficiality, sometimes seeming more decorative than narrative, which slightly dulls their emotional impact.
Il French cinema rarely ventures into the difficult territory of contemporary musicaland that's what makes it Pretty Pretty even more precious. Diastème dares to combine refined dialogues with sometimes moving, sometimes light songs, addressing universal themes such as passion, ambition and disappointments in love.
However, some songs seem to be there for the sake of pleasure of musical aesthetics rather than to actually serve the storysometimes creating a slight break in the overall rhythm of the film. But this flaw is minor compared to generosity overall of the work andsincere emotion that comes from it.
Pretty Pretty it's one bubble of sweetness and nostalgiaa love letter to the musicals of yesteryear and to romantic cinema of the seventies. While some songs would have benefited from greater narrative depth, the charm remains thanks to the committed cast, the sumptuous artistic direction and todelicately poetic direction.
A film that warms the heart and proves that the French musical still has great stories to tell.
