Comments:
This
is one of THE BEST movies ever!!!! I've seen it again
tonight for the....teenth time andjust can't stop
the shivers it sends down my spine every time I watch
it.... It is so saturated with PASSION and tragedy,
and yet comes to a happy end! The characters in it
are somewhat schematic, but that's just what the director
needed to do to depict the 20s-30s ERA.... Pure magic
created by great actors Diane Lane and Richard Gere,
and others won't leave anybody indifferent! What a
great show!
