AdÃ¨le Exarchopoulos in âBlue Is the Warmest Color.. Credit Sundance Selects. I first saw âBlue Is the Warmest Colorâ at Cannes, where I wrote 399 dissenting words on the movie and raised some of the issues I had with it. I wrote that Mr. Kechiche was a self-indulgent filmmaker (the movie runs three hours), and mentioned a scene in which a man talks about art and female orgasms.
