Sneak Peek footage from "Colette", the new Brit biographical drama, directed by Wash Westmoreland, from a screenplay by Westmoreland and Richard Glatzer, based on the life of French novelist 'Colette', starring Keira Knightley, Dominic West, Eleanor Tomlinson and Denise Gough, opening January 2019:

"Over time, lack of recognition for her work frustrates Colette, and an affair with the gender-defying 'Mathilde de Morny', the 'Marquise de Belbeuf' inspires her to break free...


"...but Willy is determined to maintain his hold over her, at any cost..."
