Fittingly for a story about fighting inhumanity with full-bodied self-expression, the choreography is shot in long, wide takes that capture every dip, shimmy and spin.

In his review for The Times, Robert Abele hailed “Audiard’s full-bodied, colorful epic” as a “satisfying movie movie” and a “good,” “imaginative” musical.

The performance is full-bodied and ravenous, and its nuance must be seen to be believed.

A lawyer, a kingpin, and his wife walk into a musical, and “Emilia Pérez” is born, Frenchman Jacques Audiard’s full-bodied, colorful epic about transformation, redemption and finding one’s voice in a hard world.

Each word, whether French or Quechuan, seemed to hold double meaning, so full-bodied was her vocal production.
