Reviews
Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

An excellent Yugoslav movie based on an equally worthy novel by the same name. (See the wikipedia entry for more details.) Vojislav Miric, Faruk Begolli and Abdurahman Shala give the performances of their lives. Beautifully filmed, the movie also serves as a useful, if oblique, insight into the "old" pre-1990 Yugoslavia and their cinema.A must for anyone interested in Yugoslav culture and history.
