Strange Film
Friends raved about this film which was based on a true story, but the sound quality of the dvd (or my hearing) was much to be desired. Not for me I’m afraid, but they still loved watching it again!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Heartwarming True Story
This film is a real heart warming story of a gifted pianist, who due to a confused angry father lost the chance to showcase his talent to the world. The fact that it is also a true story adds to the beauty of the story. I would definitely recommend it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
