(OK) How to rate this? Compostion and direction is primitve, but storytelling with contrast, even suspense and crescendo, is seminal.....there´s pure history...

(OK) Last musical by Donen, sober, tender with rthe characters but never corny, Gwen Verdon at her best as actress, and dancer (his Lola gets what Lola wants is divine, even better than her number with husband Fosse)...

(OK) Coming of age, with a parenthesis in Sweden, so somber, looser, prejudiced and sexy in a glimpse...the boys are so natural that the victim of bullying seems happy...

(OK) Tragic dimension in a great scene, where the woman dies freezed in the snow, in front of his husband fatal prejudices; there´s almost no hope hear

(MU) Jia Zhangke is as fluent in fiction as in documentary, even if this is almost two hours; but Shangay is worht trying...
