But Medellin’s intolerant society would harass him until he was finally silenced. (Filmaffinity)
Movie Reviews
- “Visually over-sugared and narratively banal (…) the film has its strongest suit in the acting.” Jonathan Romney: Screendaily
“A wonderfully sympathetic, deeply felt and tenderly funny family drama with a novelistic attention to details and episodes (…) Rating: ???? (out of 5)” Peter Bradshaw: The Guardian
