Film that captures the spirit of perseverance and self-discovery, with brilliant performances and a heartwarming story.
Just want to say that the final scene is breathtaking
This might be the best coming-of-age film I watched, I loved the plot, frames everything
One of the most beautiful and inspiring movies. Has a complexity between history, masculinity, family, in parallel with the internal call.
This is one of the most heartfelt films I’ve ever seen. It’s so beautiful. Everyone needs to watch it.
Fish-out-of-water underdog musical dance drama.
Amazing! I love this movie so much! An inspiring story that tells of a young boy who struggles to learn ballet because obstacles in his way.
One of my childhood favourites. Underrated in my opinion - shows great deal of emotion and wit and portrays british culture impeccably.
Enjoyed it way more than I thought I would, it was very cute and the music served the story well.
A simple story, but a captivating, well acted film.
