ChevalierMovie, starring Kelvin Harrison Jr., is the perfect marriage of fact and fiction, bringing to life a story of a figure history tried to forget. Our review:
Every year, Hollywood turns its gaze upon a new well-known figure to transform into the next high-profile, glossy biopic. These films, such as Elvis, Bohemian Rhapsody, and Rocketman, often aim to entertain audiences, rather than attempt to uplift relatively unknown stories.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Joseph Bologne was a man that history desperately sought to expunge from its records, nearly robbing a man of a legacy that could have—and should have—rivaled musical greats like Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. It’s this imagined rivalry that serves as the opening for the film, as Bologne challenges Mozart to a duel before an audience of bemused onlookers.
While the romance between Marie-Josephine and Joseph is one of the most plot-propelling aspects of Chevalier, it is also one of its few weaknesses. Harrison Jr. has surely cemented himself as the perfect, musically talented, and delightfully charming romantic lead—with both this film and Cyrano on his resume—but his chemistry with Weaving is not allowed enough time to fully blossom here.
