My wife let the list run down to zero so for a couple of nights I went cold turkey, but then we got that gem...
The film is incredible, it is in the best tradition of European humanist movies, if you say De Sica you are half-way there.
The most striking element - how did they manage to find so many actors of that caliber? You will not be able to forget their faces, they are expressive to no limit, I don't recall when was last time I saw actors so capable of playing complete range of emotions without saying anything - that art obviously died long time ago, replaced with plastic boobs and Tom Cruise's wooden gesturing... but here we have real old school acting, the school of Jean Gabin and Spenser Tracy... bottom line - you are in for a treat.
Mind sharing your list? I need to restore the Netflix sanity!
