I just stumbled upon it while searching for a different genre to watch but glad to watch this excellent melodramatic movie, crafted with so much attention and with a great ending. A delicate subject, well handled with superb acting. Excellent acting work overall, sometimes you could actually feel what they were going through. Interestingly, it does not contain too many explicit erotic scenes. And it is black and white which has added a sort of surrealism to the movie; you are lost in the 1920s as if you are living in that age. Those of you who have seen "Ammonite" or "Blue is the Warmest Colour" would love it.
Beautiful photograpy, wonderful story... How could you not love this movie ?!
This is one of the most beautifull I have ever seen.
Beautiful story , marvellously done. Brave and sensual at the same time. Captures the kindness and fear of people of the time. Loved the cinematography.
Such a heart warming story of two girls who were madly in love with each other and their struggles to be together at all cost. Give it a try you will not regret it.
Loved it.
Can't understand the low rating by one person moaning about the film being dubbed. Turn off the dubbing then ? It's really that simple . . .
I enjoyed it and would recommend . .
