2019/2020 SEASON 62
Thought provoking and insightful
What a misguided interpretation of the meaning of the love of God. Stultifying and brilliantly portrait
Didn't enjoy it - many quarrels and wars stem from religion
I took this as a documentary - very enlightening
An extremely harsh example of Cult living
Can we have some happy films please
Very depressing
Disturbing
Sound not good
Don't do this to us again, EVER
An extremely harsh film. Not considered to be for everyone
Interesting but also rather depressing
Not surprised that they had legal advisors on the production team
Food for thought

Characters well and delicately played
Really enjoyed the humour
Interesting story
I enjoyed it but felt ambivalent at the end
Liked the close up showing features, less was more
A charming, amusing and gentle film
Good representation of the 1980's. Difficult to understand the character's dialogue
An odd tale told sparingly
A bit slow
Disjointed. Except for Robert Redford’s smile - not much to offer
Sound not good

Wonderful
Inspiring
Great talent
All right if you like dancing
Triumph over hardship. Wonderful fluidity of movement and invention
Very good but a bit confusing with narration of leading male dancer
A great story and cast. Very well worth the visit and I have seen Acosta dance live - Excellent
The subtitles went a bit quickly
