An unexpected masterpiece
Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
