7.8?


Rubbish.

This is one of the true (and few) genuine masterpieces of cinema. It's got that truly massive, operatic feel of Citizen Kane, Godfather, etc. and should be an easy 9.

No idea what happened to Mike Van Diem, but if this was a one-hit wonder? Pretty great one hit.

The (relatively) low rating is yet another indictment of the IMDB 'algorithm' which is -supposed- to go beyond just 'popularity'.

I agree, it's a great movie. The greatest Dutch movie of all time, in my opinion.

Mike van Diem just released a new movie after 8 years. It's a romantic comedy and not so good, I'm afraid.
