Quelle Disappointment
30 June 2007 - 9 out of 16 users found this review helpful.
My husband and I waited for months to see this film of DVD and when we finally got it and watched it we were terribly disappointed. The film is about as shallow and politically loaded as watching an episode of Studio 60. The three main female leads are hollow, with the exception being Hannah Lazlo, but even her performance feels forced and 1-dimensional, as if someone told her ahead of time she'd win an award for taking on this role. Truthfully, the movie's start with Natalie Portman crying in a car and her mascara running down her face for 10 minutes to Chava Alberstein's Had Gadya wasn't a highlight either.
Advice to those seeking a good, emotionally charged, culturally deeper Israeli film: Broken Wings.
