I think it was the first time I had ever seen something like that, and it is probably also the last since I can't remember any other movie like this! I don't know how well it was done in English, but I can say it was translated into Spanish awesomely. To begin with, I was very surprised with the fact that the whole movie is spoken in verse. The movie has so many things so nicely put together, it's almost impossible not to be hooked on some of them. After all this time, I know by heart almost every scene of the movie, and it keeps on bringing tears to my eyes in the final scenes, no matter how many times I've seen it. I purchased it on VHS as soon as I could, and I am getting it on DVD now that it's available in Spain. Actually it was the first movie I ever went to see to the cinema more than once. After all, it was an european movie, it was French, it was based in a classic book and with a romantic theme. I really didn't know what to expect of a French movie with unknown actors (at least to me by then), with a story I didn't previously know and with the only reference of some Cesar awards. I don't love you! I was just a teenager when I first saw this film. ![]()
