Watch Madame Rosa (La vie devant soi) online

" Momo' – who throughout the film was being schooled by a Muslim scholar fond of reading Victor Hugo's "Les Miserables" aloud to him (who eventually goes blind) – goes to live with an attractive female film editor (Mizrahi's own wife Michal Bat-Adam) whom he had befriended at a street corner puppet show; curiously enough, her live-in reporter companion, who also interviews Momo' on his life experiences at one point, is played by Greek film director Costa-Gavras! Ultimately, having now watched MADAME ROSA, while definitely not superior to THAT OBSCURE OBJECT OF DESIRE, it is certainly better than Leonard Maltin's **1/2 rating and nowhere near as miserable a viewing experience as the plot outline above would suggest"
