Still the best
film of Galician movie history
This movie is
great. It's a very special flick: a drama about Galician migration to America
in the 1940s, a touching and sometimes violent love triangle story, but with
parts that are either very funny or delightfully magic, almost like a Galician
version of the Magic Realism of Latin American literature, with a character,
Caladiño, who's a sort of Doc Brown who doesn't get old (he LOOKS old, but
doesn't change his look at all in about 40 years of story) and is obsessed with
flying, popping up here and there through the sad plot of the film. If we think
well about it, this film has almost an Emir Kusturica-like surreal flavour
(while not as clear as in Kusturica).
Another great thing of the movie is its setting in a Galician village, which
creates a unique atmosphere (helped by beautiful cinematography and music). The
acting is pretty good, and an important part of the cast were stage players.
