I began viewing this with trepidation as I'd read a review previously and it sounded if would be a doom and gloom sort of film from beginning to end. While there were dark moments which resulted from the natural course of events during the film, I found the characters to be rich and enjoyable and ones you could really care for. Lucia Cara who played Miluzza was a delight and one could easily fall in love with her and her character. She's a beauty who sparkles. In fact, she IS the film as far as I'm concerned. Apparently she has been in only one other film which I have not yet seen but hopefully there will be many more future films with her in them.

Did not know what to expect when I rented this film but I wound up just loving it.

The beautiful Maude Forget just brought out the poignancy of her character of a teenager coping with the angst of first love. Wonderful film.

A must see for anyone needing a break from the car chases, explosions and shoot-'em-ups. Beautiful scenes too in parts of France I would love to live (or retire) in. All in all... you won't regret seeing this film. You'll come away in love with Maude and haunted by the excellent acting of all the players.
