Charlotte H It was absolutely terrifying it scared my three year old and she couldn't sleep because the kid with the big wired forehead scared her Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Życie - streszczenie Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Väldigt speciell "barn"-film, sådär surrealistisk som verkar vara så vanligt bland franska filmer. Rätt mörk film men den har sina goda stunder. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Thanks to imaginative direction, spicy performances, and a powerful theme, what would have been a dull, pointless film became a joyful viewing with the family. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Moderada sorpresa (pese al maldito e innecesario cambio de título a "Cartas a Dios"), pues al menos no se trata de una cinta al uso de infante en hospital enfrentándose a la muerte, ya que es muy libre, muy francesa... y razonablemente bien escrita en su parte más "esperanzadora". Es verdad que se va una pizca en almibarado (tentación frecuente en esta temática y comprensiblemente difícil de evitar), pero tiene más profundidad de lo que parece, jugando con el curioso mano a mano entre el chico y el maravilloso personaje de Michèle Laroque. Interesante, aunque, eso sí, poco realista. En fin, es simplemente una oración a lo largo de la vida. Un "Marcelino Pan y Vino" de nuestros días, más que por el entorno, por el modelado de los personajes... Al final, se aplaude la sencillez del film contando un tema crudo, y se agradece la elegancia de Max Von Shydow. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Oscar et la Dame Rose....es una gran película...una gran enseñanza.... Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
