9. A French version

There is a French version of this story, on Netflix, called Marguerite. I have not seen the Streep version but this one was very good. Not played for laughs, in fact kind of bittersweet. It does have subtitles so if you don't like them this isn't for you.

10. Well, this is a true story

Obviously, not all elements of the movie are true, but the movie really captures the story of her life, imo.
