A strongly recommended film especially for those looking for an alternative to action-driven films with little substance. This is quite a drama tough so be ready for some tears or emotional moments.
Bocelli's lifestory is tough and makes quite an underdog story. For me, the drama was created and elevated by the relationship of Bocelli with four women these being his mother/primary school teacher/maestro's wife and his wife. These talented actors bring such a force of life into the film that I wish I could watch more of them in other films.
And the maestro, I never knew Banderas could be such an accomplished actor as I always took him for a showy pop actor. I was mistaken. It would be great to see him in more classical roles.
