What the press would say:

A beautiful and wonderful piece of film from the Director of Moulin Rouge. The Acting is beyond excellent and Oscar Nominations should rightly be given out. The songs the art and the dialogue has shun brightly, never have I seen a film with such beauty and depth be so tragic and overwhelming. A certain Oscar winner, and a certain classic.
