This is one of the most beautiful films I've ever seen & it is on our Highly Recommended list. The first reviewer got it right: it is a poetic, lyrical experience making exquisite use of its soundtrack & visual imagery. Potter was obviously working on a shoe-string budget, which makes the accomplishment all the more incredible.
It breaks my heart to think that mature women filmmakers like Potter go begging (for audiences as well as for funds) while smart-ass guys like Wes Anderson & Christoper Nolan get too much of both.
