It is a brilliant film. I am not a musical film gal. As such it was a tough decision to watch the film; I am so glad I did. I am amazed at how much I liked the film. Zoe! What an Oscar winning performance! She and the entire cast should receive nominations for their acting. The writing was so lyrical and sweet. The things the little girl said about Emilia when she was putting her to sleep. it made me want to cry, they were so innocent and pure. What a wonderful film.
