    To Helen W, the previous reviewer. It is meant to be a quiet film. Falling in love does not need words. It's an incredibly beautiful film, layered and powerful. Review: One of my all time favorites. It is easy to fall in love with the characters. Very charming movie.

    Gave up after the first hour as nothing happened beyond a few minutes' worth of scene setting. Maybe it's one of those films where you have to guess what's going on from the actors' facial expressions as there is very little dialogue: after an hour nothing had been communicated beyond what was in the trailer and there wasn't any sign of a meaningful relationship forming between the two leads.

    La historia, la época, la fotografía tan colorida, las pinturas y las dos actrices principales, son algo tan hermoso de ver. Es una película que se ha vuelto de mis favoritas. Expresa algo muy profundo y eso te hace conectar todo el tiempo.

    Economic, nuanced and deep story telling of the highest order

    Beautiful to look at. Great story and script. The pacing is not "American." Long takes. Some long silences. Deeply felt - even passionate. But it takes its time. One of my favorites of all times; but not a movie for everyone.
