Review of Queen of Hearts

I think this is one of the best films ever made. Ever since I first saw it back around 1990 I feel in love with it and have not altered my feelings towards it since. The film is narrated by Eddie 11 year boy. I love the way this is taken into account in the presentation for example the tent in the living room when his mum is giving birth to his sister. The performances in the film are wonderful. My favourites are the 2 grandparents. One a staunch Catholic who actually reminded of my own grandmother a bit who confesses other people's sins and not her own and the other a fascist who long since let go of religion and taken up the gun. My favourite bit in the whole film is the grandfather dies and goes to heaven. As he is running towards his mother he becomes a child again as recahes her arms. I could go on all day waxing lyrical about this film but I will stop now. Brilliant.
