If you like Jeremy Irons, and don't mind partial sub-titles, or unusual narrative structure, you will like this movie. Since I like all these things I really enjoyed this film.
At its heart it's a classic romance. It is also, classic Jeremy Irons... his slightly distressed face, cultivated manner, and slight tinge of a potentially dark past, all work well here. As do all the actors -- most of whom were new to me -- who are interesting and believable in a story which is, ultimately, an un-believable tale of romance, fate, and mortality.
Definitely recommended for anyone wanting a slightly off-beat romantic movie night (highly recommended for any Jeremy Irons fans).Great Cinema - kap0n3
the acting by the cast in "and now... ladies and gentlemen" - both by renowned actors like Jeremy Irons as well as others novice to this Art, like Patricia Kaas- is beautiful, very deeply felt. I was moved by the expression in these two actor's eyes. But one mustn't consider and rate acting by itself in Lelouch movies, as it is the unity of all skills and feelings that make his work so profound. The acting, directing, photography, music... they make up a story, a story that could be yours, mine, anyone's story. That's why it always hits home.
