For the Bohemian at heart

Rating: 10/10 (6 December 2001)

Suffice to say, if you are a fan of Baz Luhrmann (as I am) you will love this film. I don't think the anachronistic use of modern-day songs could have been more expertly woven into a story, to give it a depth and emotional credibility that just would not have been possible if it were being told "straight".
This is not a history lesson, and there are no morals or hidden meanings. It is simply a fantasy that takes your eyes, ears, and emotions on a holiday that you wish you didn't have to come back from.
An enormous amount of love, passion, and meticulous attention to detail went into the making of this film and every member of the cast and crew deserves a standing ovation for their efforts.
An inspiring effort: 10/10
