I saw this movie at the Toronto film festival, 2005.....
The previous reviewer was absolutely correct - it was a very different type of movie from the usual.
A star-studded vehicle wherein the characters burst into song spontaneously at appropriate intervals - it engages the audience immediately since all of the songs are most recognizable. In essence, you've attended a super movie and participated in the unfolding story as well.
The musical aspects are a "master stroke." There is an underlying drama depicting the difficulties of relationships, family and everyday life and in no way is the story shortchanged by the use of the music.
There are many laughs and alternately serious moments and yet somehow the sum of the parts work to make an enjoyable and satisfying whole.
My understanding is the movie has been caught in merger "limbo" delaying the U.S. release and it's a terrible, terrible shame.
John Turturro is to be commended for his original screenplay and his directorial gifts.
Release this movie to the U.S. Moviegoig Public..........you won't regret it!
