this move be charm and move and and altogether enthral . but never do it patronize it audience by try too hard to egg any emotion out of you . the film subtlety be brilliant . it manage to be emotional but not sappy . everyone acting be just right . the young man who play 12 year old vitus might as well be the child prodigy portray in the movie and for he actually play the piano in every scene . if he be cast just for his musical talent and then the director of the movie get lucky and because man can he act . also of note be the performance deliver by the boy grandfather and his mother . all of these be and once again and pitch perfect and never over do . if you saw autumn rush and want to gag at it cheesiness and this be the antidote . and to think i have never hear of it before i rent it .
