If you appreciate astounding photography you simply must get yourself a copy of this film. Zambarloukos may well be the best cinematographer out there. The film is definitely not for the faint hearted and the way the story meanders does touch, deftly, upon madness and leaves the viewer feeling somewhat unsettled. Scratch beneath the luscious surface, however, and you'll find yourself engrossed in a story whose twists simply render a spoiler obsolete. I for one am glad it's finally out on DVD and intend to make it an unusual Xmas gift to unsuspecting friends and relatives. If it doesn't take your breath away then your senses are obviously dulled.
