Aug 21, 2008 - I liked this movie because it captured so well the esoteric culture surrounding instruments like the viol and lute in 17th-c France. But this actor's left hand drives me crazy. It is obviously not stopping the right strings at the right frets. I wish it could have been kept out of the shot. It was so distracting that it almost ruined the movie for me.

Aug 21, 2008 - Guess I can deem me lucky not to be a trained instrumentalist. - It's that basic problem that an actor's skills lie basically on acting. On a quite different level the way movie cops and criminals sling their guns is also often far from each reality.

Aug 21, 2008 - It's true, but i think sound and image aren't adjusted (example: sound before string D )

HARMONICO101 Says:

Aug 21, 2008 - I know what you mean exactly. Its quite clear he has absolutely no idea how to play. I just try my best to ignore it. I think they fixed it a bit on the DVD, but it still is quite ckearky faked.

HARMONICO101 Says:

Aug 21, 2008 - Oh, is this a piece by Sainte-Colombe, or is it composed by Jordi Savall? I heard that there is a mix of authentic french baroque music and some of Jordi Savall's own music.

Aug 21, 2008 - I am sad, angry, but then I remember when I first encountered this wonder...

pierrot79 Says:

Aug 21, 2008 - From "Les Pleurs", piece for two viols (arranged for one viol by Savall).

pierrot79 Says:

Aug 21, 2008 - Jean-Pierre Marielle is no cellist or violist. There's not match between fingers and sound to look for.

cgavin1 Says:

Aug 21, 2008 - For anyone who hasn't actually seen the film, the woman he is playing to is his wife. He's crying because, she's dead. Note at the end the broken biscuit on the table. Its a cornerstone of the film's message.

jenkeljoyce Says:

Aug 21, 2008 - what is the name of the painting which represented by the table and the bottle????

MerneTure Says:

Aug 21, 2008 - Recién ayer la vi... Es exquisita la mezcla con la viola, la nostalgia, el amor, la pasión... Una de las mejores películas que he visto en mi vida.

tzs545 Says:

Aug 21, 2008 - It's a beautiful story, about all different kinds of love.

fruglescot Says:

Aug 21, 2008 - For mon amie DAGMAR!

Aug 21, 2008 - I AWARD THIS 4 1/2 GRYPHONS....As this performance is shreiking with ghostly paranormal overtones associated with ghosts.This isn't music...but the sound of souls trapped in between realms.And God...it's good.

OneWhoSeeksCoyotes Says:

Aug 21, 2008 - This is one of my all time favorite movies and soundtracks and composers. The instrument is breathtaking!

fruglescot Says:

Aug 21, 2008 - For Leo Zhang.... Cellist extrordinaire.
