heartwarming
Among the many strengths of this movie: excellent dialogues-better if you understand Spanish-, superb acting even by children, touching and comic -not corny- story, magnificent landscapes and atmospheres. Definitively, an intelligent movie with a big heart.
Big European Montage
Probably done for a reasonable enough budget, but this film has the look and soul of a big, well-crafted European production.The script is just filled with nodules of truth wrapped up in old world philosophy, that play out before the viewer’s eye. This is a long film so make sure that you have the time and mental alertness to make the journey – but for the patient, the investment is worth it.
The cast is filled with capable players: the leads are exceptional latin character actors, they are surrounded by the others which are more often than not caricatures who actually focus the reality of the story around the serious players.
The cinematography is magnificent.
