      In 1934 Berlin, Solange Gallinato can be seen arrested by soldiers armed with rifles in the opera house, however as Germany was not at war, she would instead have been arrested by the Schutzpolizei, who wear a different uniform to that of soldiers, including the characteristic shako police cap and carried a holstered pistol, not rifle.

    un entrecote...
    Of french modern filmaking, believe it or not this will become a classic for the real filmenthusiast. You may want to stop my braggilation, but on location choice and set management, being introduced to an era of french history that only a handful of people alive today have witnessed, a crowd that will applaud the authenticety of the colours on fire of france 1927-1938.

    A vast production this mustve been, a setup for a revenge that would make headlines even today, where the rich gets richer on behalf on other rich people,becoming ruined of the loss of fortunes, fortunes made from hard work accumulated from generation to generation getting lost due to simple fraud and theft by compagnions and envious relatives when the ''roix'' of the company dies.

    The plot may seem slick for the actionseeker that breeds on films involving financial crimes , heists and other ponzi schemes, but its adagian pace of plot, its excellent cast, and the hints that leads us to believe its based on a true story, makes it quite a fond personal feeling to handle the dagger of sweet revenge on the crooks.

    I dont fancy opera much, but as a major part of the plot and storyline, the score is quite a part of the story itself. Also the political and racial issues raised really gives this story a mighty big punsh into our present times. The filmatographical magics may take you breath away at moments, its darn well edited, the costumes and make up departments has gone wild to give a most authentic taste of the past.

    Well if youre not much into french life and film, do make a start on this one.

    I was awestruck by sweedish ''fanny and alexander'' once upon a time, this gave that same gutfeeling of the good old lays and days, allthough with different plot inclinations.

    A production and a cast ensemble that almost blew the brains out of a grumpy old man.
