Priceless

If the publicity materials put out on it’s behalf can be relied on, Pierre Salvadori’s deftly amusing Priceless is intended, at least in part, as a Gallic reworking of, and homage to, Blake Edwards’ 1961 Breakfast at Tiffany’s. There are rough story-line parallels—both of them involve a young woman who makes her way by selling her favors to rich men and a young man in tow to an older woman—but the two movies are vastly different. Priceless is unlikely to remind anyone of Edwards’ broader, more blunt-edged and sentimental work.
