Oh man... that looks horrible. They didn't even use Celine's singing voice. Mistake #1. And the person singing has this crazy vibrato with no control over it. The guy playing Rene looks NOTHING like him lol.

Wow...well, they made a couple horrible Judy Garland bio pics before they made Me & My Shadows (which was terrific) ...maybe it'll take a few bad ones to get to the Oscar nods.

Thanks

[Krys]

parts of it seems like a joke. i wouldnt mind watching it though

[nic]

I'm pretty excited to see this.  I really think Christine Ghawi managed to capture a lot of her mannerisms really well on Gill Deacon.

thanks for the links

I really want to see this movie. I have a feeling it may not be too great, but at least the woman playing Celine is from Quebec and I really liked her from the interview someone posted here earlier. It may be good or it maybe a trainwreck, but it will definitely be interesting.

Interesting.... My only concern is that the movie will contain a lot of untrue information that some TV viewers will throw out of proportion. Seeing as Celine nor Rene were directly involved with the production of the movie, they couldn't possibly get the Celine & Rene story straight! Nevertheless, I am still very interested in seeing the movie!

hmmm...after watching the trailer a few more times, I kind of like the adaptation of Celine's life. It's not 100% accurate with the language and all, but it looks exciting when the beginning of her career starts out! I really want to see this movie now!

[Jillian]

Oh gosh I am petrified for this movies. The girls that play Celine will do an okay. The older one seems to have a good idea of Celine but the guy that plays Rene...oye! Especially the first kiss! Seriously over done! "Rene" has "Celine" pinned against the wall!! I think Celine was doing the pinning!! lol oh well, hopefully it will be good for a laugh.

I wish they would use Celine's voice during the songs, that would save the project for me. Otherwise it just seems like a watered down version of Celine's story. The movie Selena would not have done as well if it was Jennifer Lopez's voice they had used instead of Selena's. However since this is a tv movie, perhaps they can't acquire/afford the rights for it.

heres christine ghawi talking about playing celine:

HAHA, fun watching, although I had a hard time seeing what the host saw, sure there were SOME recemblents, and I really hope she's studyid Céline a lot, can't wait to see the outcome of this.

Poor girl though, how easy can it be impersonating Céline when the host stands yelling "do Céline!, now do Céline!!"

HAHAH! How C!!

They should had asked for permission to shoot at the real colloseum, isntead of that small stage.

I can't make that actor who plays Rene work, after seeing him for so long on Just Shoot Me, his movements are far too quick and he doesn't have that maffia voice either.

And yes they should had used live soundtracks of Céline's performances (not studio tracks!) instead of that singer, no one sings like Céline, and she is so known for her voice, using another voice blows it all...

And what is that English song the young version of Céline is singing? Written for the movie? BTW her young singing voice sounds a lot more close to the real one...

[Bruno Dion]

thnxs:)

[Lawna]

the more i watch the clip, the more I like it lol...It's like the English Celine lol. I mean, I don't expect everything to be true in this movie, but some parts yes! And it will be interesting to see how they portray Celine. I agree with Jillian about Rene not being the one to pin Celine and kiss her lmao...it would definitely be Celine pinning Rene!

[ewh12]

it doesn't look like anything to take REAL seriously, but think of this
if its a ratings winner the Taking Chances album could go up!
its good timing if they can get it on the air soon

[CELINIASMENOS]

Thanks for the trailer!

[artist]

[fab]

thank you

Don't you just love the way they wrote this "current husband."  Like there will be another? If you knew Celine, you would know it's her only husband.




It also traces Dion's unconventional romance with her much older manager and current husband, Rene Angelil (portrayed by Enrico Colantoni of "Veronica Mars" and "Just Shoot Me").

If there's really gonna be a tv movie of Celine's career, I would like Sarah Geronimo tp play as Celine Dion 'cos she sounds like Celine Dion.
