Kusturica's best... (Rating: 5.00)
Review : It doesn't have the glossy polish of his later and better-known films, but to me this is Kusturica's best. It's totally sincere, beautifully acted by every single actor and actress, it's interesting, funny, tragic,loveable. Everything that his other films also are but better.
A Favorite! (Rating: 5.00)
Review : This is one of my all-time favorite movies! The atmosphere is dreamlike - expressed in the boy's sleepwalking and the unrepressable subconscious - a thing that communism disavows. Thus, the boy's very being becomes an expression of natural defiance toward the coming communist regime under Tito and its spirit-crushing regime. A classic flic. Highly recommended.
