Another passionate performance from Depardieu., 5 February 2000
7/10
Author: mifunesamurai from Australia

I've managed to see the original French version as apposed to the atrocious English dubbed version. In this you can hear the passion in the actor's voices and the music somehow seems more traumatic. This is a wonderful tale about the importance of love if the truth does not matter. Remade in the USA as SOMERSBY.
