This is a gorgeous and gripping film. The script is beyond fabulous, and the acting is no less.

There are movies where the soundtrack is seemingly perfect... but this film blows the seamlessness of those films away... The music weaves so accurately it made me cry. Not because of its emotional reflection, but just at the PERFECTION of it. Rarely in a work of art these days do you claim perfection. When people do, they might drink a beer, eat a cupcake, I don't know, kiss someone. I cry.

I am glad I will have died having seen this film. So, I hope, will you be.
