Dartherer I really don't get the hype.
Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.
Sabah Hensley This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
boblipton The Greek legend of Pygmalion and Galatea get the Lotte Reininger silhouette treatment in this lovely and funny adaptation of the old Greek myth. Pygmalion falls in love with his statue of a beautiful woman and his prayers are answered: she becomes a live woman -- in this case she transforms from part of the painted background into one of Reininger's silhouette figures. But Pygmalion, who has conventional ideas of how women should behave, finds that his creation has different ideas of what she wants....Lotte Reininger's silhouettes may be difficult to follow, since the aesthetics involved are different from standard movies: but the beauties of her details and her sense of humor should be enough to draw you in, should you be fortunate enough to see them.
