This was a beautiful film to look at, but I found it rather slow. Not one of my favourite Depp films.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
Johnny Depp is in the movie, thats why I bought it, but I can't play it on my DVD Player, so I have to play it on my computer. Not sure why it works only on my computer...
film starts off in a similar atmosphere like that of the classic fiddler on the roof, small jewish community inhabiting a remote russian village is forced to exile, separating a little girl from her father. she ends up in england where she grows up in a foster home struggling to fit in, finally relocating in france in pursue of a career in entertainment, by this time there are already alarming signs of rising nazism to be seen and the fatal threat of holocaust is casting a more sinister shade to the lives of those who do not fit the arian ideals. these include jewish population just as well as the gipsy outcasts, one of whom in particular brings a romantic twist to the young heroines life, a beautiful love story which will also make this film an absolute must see for anyone who is in love with the work of mr.johnny depp or ms. christina ricci.Read full review
I'm a big fan of Johnny Depp so that's what attracted me to this DVD. I always check out prices of films I want on ebay because the prices are so good. I wasn't in any way disappointed with this purchase. It came very quickly, and is a great movie. It's now doing the rounds of all the females in my family!
Liked the film very much, although Christina Ricci in the lead role is a tad wooden for my liking... Cate Blanchett and Johnny Depp are excellent and the atmosphere of WW2 Paris is protrayed realistically and with compassion for the persecuted elements of society. Yep, a good watch, Johnny Depp's white horse is beautiful. !!!
