Who else likes this movie?


Although it is a sad movie, it still has its enjoyable moments.....I liked it, who else did?

-- ! MINOR SPOILER AHEAD ! --

Yes, I did! At first I wasn't too impressed, but it got me the moment Camiel asks Simon to be his witness at his marriage. After that, I became more and more involved emotionally, crying all the way to the end - and yet, when the credits came up, I had a feel good sensation of the movie as a whole. A subdued celebration of the strange twists and turns of life, of fate, and the powers that bind people together.


--Frankly, count, I find this composition unworkable.

I stumbled across this movie totally by accident ~ and I am so glad that I did!
I thought it was beautifully done and Simon's sense of humour, irreverant and politically incorrect, was well used.
I don't know when I will get a chance to see it again and I am kicking myself for not recording it because I would love to be able to share it with a few of my friends.
