This is just a comment about another reviewer (pablo1) who obviously did not see the film and could not resist putting a comment. First, Don Quinquin did not imagine that his wife betrayed him as he came upon her in bed with his best friend. Secondly, he chased his wife away WITHOUT their daughter and as she told him that the child was not his (a lie in order to keep the baby), he took the girl away and abandoned her. The mother never saw her again and was never told what became of her. Quinquin did not know that his daughter was ever married until the very last moment and only then did she told him that she was pregnant. I would appreciate if "would be" reviewers made the effort to watch the film, otherwise, why bother ? Thank you.

It's so bad that I destroyed the DVDs after watching it ! And yes, I forced myself to watch and listen to it until the end, because I never would condemn something without seeing it. No acting to speak of, no script, nothing ! After this, not only will I avoid this director and actors (or so called !)like the pest at any time, but I won't rely on IMDb ratings because this is really in the top 5 worst things I have seen in my life ! I would not even call it a film. If you want a good gay film, watch Queer as Folks (UK or US), beautiful things, Maurice, my beautiful launderette... (there is no shortage of them !).... but not this kind of c...p !!!

Yes, how any of you can dare compare a miss Zeta- Jones ( a very beautiful woman, I agree, but a wax model) with a real actress like Martina Gedeck ??? Martina is so real in this film that she can make you believe that the word beauty has been invented for her. Beautiful ?? Not really, but a real actress with an infinite range (and, yes, thank you very much, I have seen the Baader Meinhof complex !). You know who she reminds me of ? Nathalie Baye, another understated, unassuming actress who I also saw when she began, and becomes more and more beautiful as she ages. Are you so blind that you cannot make the difference between the real thing and a cardboard copy? Mostly MARTHA is ACTING with a big A and no matter how many people are too stupid or too blind to see the truth, it cannot be hidden.
