Colette (2018)

In the radiant heart of Paris, Gabrielle Colette (Keira Knightley) finds herself whisked away from her rustic French countryside origins, following her marriage to the prolific writer, Henry Gauthier-Villars - known fondly as "Willy" (Dominic West). Amidst the city's dazzling intellectual and artistic grandeur, Colette is persuaded to become Willy's clandestine scribe. She breathes life into a semi-autobiographical novel, spinning tales of a spirited and audacious country maiden named Claudine, which promptly ascends to bestseller status, triggering a cultural whirlwind. With the triumph of Claudine, Colette and Willy emerge as Parisian sensations, their exhilarating escapades fueling further Claudine narratives. Colette's struggle for recognition and her defiance of gender norms become the catalyst for her audacious journey, emboldening her to challenge societal shackles. Her persistence revolutionizes not only the literary world, but also leaves indelible marks on the realms of fashion and sexual expression. Colette's story is a testament to the power of creativity and the resilience of the human spirit, beautifully capturing the essence of an era and the birth of a trailblazer.
