The film—if we are calling this .mkv a film—unfolds like his best song: quiet, devastating, then explosive.

Absolutely. This is not merely a concert film or a simple biopic. Monsieur Aznavour is a masterclass in acting, direction, and sound design. Tahar Rahim’s lip-sync to Aznavour’s actual recordings is uncanny, and the period recreations of 1940s Montmartre are breathtaking.
