10• Robert Ebert’s review of which film?“This film is like nothing they’ve seen before, with its startling landscapes, architecture and locations, its exuberant colours, its sudden and joyous musical numbers right in the middle of dramatic scenes, and its melodramatic acting (teeth gnash, tears well, lips tremble, bosoms heave, fists clench). At the same time, it’s a memory of the films we all grew up on, with clearly defined villains and heroes, a romantic triangle, and even a comic character who saves the day. “_______” is a well-crafted, hugely entertaining epic that has the spice of a foreign culture.
