Reviews
To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
