The DG picked this one, then I ended up watching it by myself. I knew going in it was a chick flick, but w/o her I was able to watch it w/o personal censure. I cried, but it is not a "sad" story. If you like foreign films and listening to foreign languages while watching a movie that gives a peek into another culture, then this is one of the best movies ever made. I will buy this movie on disc for sure. Spoiler: there is no nudity, violence or cursing. There is however, stunning camera work and imagery. O.K. I'm not being long winded enough for a review. Seems I'll have to add to it. Unlike other reviewers who shall not be named, I enjoyed the interactions between the principal character of the movie and the "little sh*t". Everyone knows the world over that little boys are "little sh*ts", and little girls are the ones who do all the work. This is a very deep story. If you didn't get it you are either too stoopid, or too sexist.
