Review of Zou Zou

Zou Zou (1934)
6/10
Even in French, it's a pleasure to watch Josephine Baker in Zouzou
8 February 2019
After several years, I finally discovered this-Josephine Baker's first talkie feature film from France. The YouTube upload I watched had the option of turning on the English subtitles but after a while, I had to turn that off because what I read didn't make sense to me. So watching without understanding the French language was a little unusual for me though when Ms. Baker sings in that tongue, it's still a pleasure to behold. Having read the synopsis on Wikipedia and this site, it's the kind of story you see here in the states at that time except it wouldn't be between two different races, that's for sure! So on that note, Zouzou is worth a look.
