Leonardo Sbaraglia stars in a masterpiece:
I bought this DVD knowing nothing about it except that it stars one of my favorite actors, Leonardo Sbaraglia, a terrific young Argentine actor; it turned out to be one of the best movies I've ever seen. You will have to take a leap of faith, because it isn't known in the USA, but you will be richly rewarded. The director, Antonio Hernández, is a master filmmaker and the film is exceptional in every way - the cinematography, the editing, the music, all create a truly gorgeous experience (and the anamorphic widescreen transfer is perfect). The acting is sublime: in addition to Sbaraglia, Fernando Fernán Gómez and Geraldine Chaplin give great performances as his parents. Everything about this film is amazing, and the subject matter, themes, and characters will stay with you. You'll want to recommend this one to everyone you know, and to watch it again yourself. Buy it.
La ví en Argentina y me gustó tanto que me la compré aquí:
This is a terrific movie. It is the story of a family whose wealthy patriarch is dying in a Paris hospital. As his family arrives from Spain and Argentina to be by side in his final days, one of the sons uncovers a secret that has been guarded well by the father for years. The plot addresses themes such as European fascism, homosexuality, and family unity. Wonderful performances are given by Leonardo Sbaraglia, Geraldine Chaplin, and Fernando Fernán Gómez. Os recomiendo que la compréis.
