Both  films were inspired by the life of  Florence Foster Jenkins ( 1868 - 1944 ) the eccentric American socialite who was unable to sing a note but loved music so much she did not mind being laughed at ! She embarked on a career as an amateur opera singer but her polite dearest husband and her loyal guests were never able to tell her how badly she sang ! May be they all agreed with this famous quote : "When words fail , music speaks ".

The french actress Catherine Frot's and the american famous Meryl Streep's performances are really great ,aren't they ?

Music has been playing an important role in human beings' lives for ages. It helps people to calm down and it is a great pleasure to listen to music anytime.
I watched the French movie and I intend to watch the American one soon.
