Title: Well crafted
Review: This movie attempts to take a very complex subject and reduce it to two hours of time, and that just can't be done. There is so much that is missing in relationship to who Josephine Baker was as an individual. Do I believe this to be an accurate portrayal? ...that is a tough question to answer. There are some things that are left out that seem like glaring omissions--her bisexuality and her involvement with the French Resistance, but, to have included those topics and explained them with the necessary complexity would have added at least another hour to the film. The director has done a good job in pulling out the most important parts in attempting to convey a very complex person. The time period, the sets, the costumes, and the joie de vivre of Josephine--these make it a movie worth watching.
