El hombre de arcilla

Wow, just wow! A simple, old story insanely beautifully told.

The sort of film the Americans could never ever make, only the French - eccentric and sensual, funny and poignant. Filmed in the most glorious colours and natural light almost flowing from the screen into the room. And the central character one of the most memorable faces and bodies in a film for a long time. Many of the images will linger. La Belle et la Bête, indeed. Don't miss this!

This is where I'd like to end my review, but IMDB insist on a minimum review length which I haven't quite reached yet. But really, just watch this film: images not words.
