Underwhelming film

The team assembled for the filming of this movie was impressive. Scriptwriter Maria Luisa Bemberg directed and wrote several international hits (Camila 1984, I, the Worst of All 1990). She was slated to direct this film too but died prior to filmation. Cinematographer Ricardo Aronovich worked for many top directors (Costa-Gavras, Louis Malle, Alain Resnais). Nicola Piovani wrote the music for Fellini's last movies. Unfortunately, the result is not what we could expect from such talents. Dialogue is stilted and literary at times, acting has rough spots, cinematography is unremarkable and music (as well as noise) is obtrusive, The ending is somewhat contrived and predictable and the plot has inconsistencies. Disappointing.
