Talented combination of over-the-top and heartiness

Rating: 9/10 (11 February 2020)

Although its pace is versatile, depending on dialogues and scenes, I find it wise that the beginning is so "crazy" - it makes you eagerly follow what is going on and what would happen, enjoy the twists and changes in moods and wisenings even more... A real dramedy, with sad and tragic moments included.
The performances are excelling, particularly the 2 "leading boys" Jojo and Yorki, as well the supporting cast... Direction, production, music - everything in harmony, just where they need to be.
Well, evidently, such a film could not have been made in Germany, but still - good that we have it. Forget your prejudices, discomfort and one-sided stories about WWII and see comic elements in tragedy and vice versa!
