A star is born in a time of both celebration and instability in this historical drama with music from director Christophe Barratier. In the spring of 1936, Paris is in a state of uncertainty; while the rise of the Third Reich in Germany worries many, a leftist union-oriented candidate, Léon Blum, has been voted into power, and organized labor is feeling its new power by standing up to management.

Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Paris 36 is perhaps overlong for what it is, and it's certainly feather-light, but it gives its watcher an uncomplicated pleasure; like looking through a faded scrapbook, filled with memories once bright.

fresh:
An utterly charming and sentimental French melodrama with music, a nostalgic look backstage and back in history.
– Roger Moore,

Paris 36 is a handsomely made French musical that never really soars.

Essentially a pastiche, as musty as a flea market.

If you're a Francophile, it may be worth a look. But it's no Moulin Rouge.
