"My Life in Pink"
("Ma Vie en Rose")
1997
Directed by Alain Berliner
Ludovic is a
seven year old boy who dresses, acts like and is convinced he's a girl, and wants to marry
his next door neighbor and best friend Jerome--who also happens to be the
son of his father's boss. For
Ludovic, nothing is more natural than to
change his gender, and he truly believes a miracle will happen. But as the
innocent Ludovic tries to set things right, he must deal with the gay
phobias, fears and prejudices of the adult world. With a wonderful,
self-possessed performance by 11-year-old Georges du Fresne. Winner of The
Golden Globe for Best Foreign Language Film. "Deft and wildly
colorful" (Janet Maslin, The New York Times).
France/Belgium/Great Britain. 89
minutes.
