Reviews
WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
