If you are trying to reduce your intake of nicotine, nostalgia and alcohol, avoid this movie. This one is mainly for the Piano and Whisky crowd. Our hero is a womanizer tripping on cigarettes, whisky and music. Bossa Nova, particularly. Not quite politically correct, the guy, but his intentions are good, you can't help but like his madness.
