A Fairytale Of A Movie, 27 March 2002
9/10
Author: richard-III from The Netherlands (Europe)

Rather unsuspecting I started watching a movie on television, co-starring young actress Jennifer Connelly whom I knew from the Jim Henson movie 'Labyrinth'. It started playful and lighthearted, but slowly grabbed me along its weird and wonderful storytelling path. This is a film to have and to hold, it grows on you. And Jennifer and her weird sisters are spellbinding and to watch out for!
