A masterpiece of poetry & magical realism. The "comic" device of the poet's dialogues with death is sheer brilliance; the many ways a heart can be used are explored masterfully; the friendship between the three Dionysian male friends is a delight. Rent this film. Keep it a few extra days and watch it again. It's hard to find, but definitely belongs on your "Ten Best" list.
