Music
Criticism
(...) The comedy scenes that do not fit into the movie and forces act. The predictability, the results from the fatalistic structure of the story (especially in the second half). And the songs that lack memorable melodies. All the moves given the daring story of the relentless melodrama and the fabulous actors in the background. (...) ( Molodezhnaja.ch of March 23, 2006 )
