it is not an answer to The Artist. it is not exactly an adaptation of the brothers Grimm. it is a Spanish story in a wonderful manner. the performance, the music, atmosphere and each scenes are parts of a real gem. Maribel Vertu does one of her memorable roles. and presence of Angela Molina is inspired, delicate and seductive. it is a homage but not only for an age of cinema. it is a homage for a type of art, literature, joy, beauty and love expression. a show, of course but one who broken many frontiers. the end is admirable. the white/black image not a tool but skin for a ball of feelings for who the color is just oppressive. the best part - maybe its special delicacy. the precise use of melodrama. the taste of humor and revolt, sadness and joy. the discover of old bricks who was used for Don Quijote by Cervantes. the frame of cruelty, the force of innocence, the heart of freedom and courage, the slices of authentic mute movie, the silk of dream and pink novel, the crust of adventure, the universal motifs in a warm light.
