I love offbeat movies. I am a history buff, so the setting is ideal for me. Should be fun, and interesting.

I hope you enjoy it. Though in this movie it's more about story than history, but you'll see what I mean when you watch it.
Wow!
As I watched I thought of Fellini. I thought of Brecht. I thought of Faulkner. I was dismayed, and riveted. I did not find the film enjoyable in the sense that one has a good time in watching a movie. Forget about that. It was a memorable, fascinating trip I could not turn away from.
And yes, it is about history, but about all history. About war, and all war. About folly and and self-delusion. It is also an ode to the idea of Yugoslavia.
Boy, you can see I was impressed. Thanks. How did I miss this movie all these years??
This is a powerful response to the film I reviewed! I am impressed that it had such a profound effect on you. And I am glad I could share this excellent masterpiece with someone who appreciated it this much.
I'm grateful when someone expands my universe :)
