      Audience Member Between 3 and 3.5 stars. It goes unknitting the many nots around the past... Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Maravillosa pelicula de conflictos familiares y de como nos sentimos indefensos siendo ancianos y perdiendo facultades..última vez que he visto en cine al gran Fernando F.Gomez y siempre agradable ver a Leonardo Sbaraglia y a Geraldine Chaplin. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Un culebron de lujo, muy bien hecho, pero le falta algo... quizas un poco mas de emocion. A Geraldine Chaplin se le nota demasiado que ha ocultado algo toda su vida y la verdad es que su secreto, si no eres tonto, lo adivinas cuando Sbaraglia se asoma a la puerta de Rancel y le abre un tio cachas, supuesto amigo de el... Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member MUST SEE. Once again proves that there is intelligence out there in movie making (Even if it's not in the U.S.). Actual suspense, intrigue, mystery, drama . . . all with out a big budget. MY FAVORITE MOVIE EVER. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member i don't know how to talk about that...just makes my feel tears full of eyes... Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Well made film, the story is interesting and the actors are doing their job but it leaves me cold. Pity!
