Applause has given me a new found appreciation for foreign films everywhere. The main character, played by Paprika Steen, is a one of a kind actress; she can light up the screen, no matter the scene, with her energy and passion for the arts. The film only has a select few characters, and that is all it needs to explain such a moving story about a woman trying to better herself as a mother and a human being. Applause is definitely a film for those you can value a strong foreign film, such as this one.

If you want to see on the best performances by an actress this year, you must see Applause. Paprika Steen may not be a household name in the US, I hope that after this performance we see more of her in American films.

This is the real old burlesque, in its background, people and atmosphere. So was Beth Brown's book, and Garret Fort has adapted with sufficient fidelity to hold together the odd story that makes an odd picture.

Rouben Mamoulian was a visionary, and you can see his genius in every frame of this film. There is nothing static about the camera work in this 1929 tragedy. Yes, the story is a bit creaky to modern eyes, and the dialog can be a little heavy-handed, but the story is darker than would be allowed just a few years later, and very adult. Helen Morgan is a revelation - almost unrecognizable in her dowdy costume and peroxide wig. Joan Peers is suitably terrified of her step-father, who is believably horrific. Further, the Kino DVD has all sorts of great extras that are worth the price of admission on their own. Terrific find.

We follow a pretty uncharming woman, a divorced drunk that seem to have some trouble coping with her life. She is also some kind of celebrity and we watch her on-going show during the film, a nice, fitting feature. The film is very real and sad. I can't sympathize with her, at least not very often. Still, she got some point of attraction for me, and the themes here are both relevant and heart breaking. A mediocre plus film for me, that never really grips me, but still a pretty solid, indie looking flick with a great lead performance. 6.5 out of 10 hand claps.
