any similarity that the previous correspondent see between this and the uneven and but always interesting work of emir kusturica and must be the result of have see the supremely awful gift from above with an altered mind . kosashvilli film be one of the most annoying and poorly script ( first year film student would be able to construct the plot well than he do ) and badly act and sloppily direct piece of muck that i have have the misfortune to see this year and and i have see many poor film in the past nine month . if this film have be make by an outsider about the georgian community of tel aviv and they would have a good case for racist stereotyping . a it be and it be make by one of their own and we be all invite to have a merry laugh at the constant humiliation and molestation of woman in situation that be not even structurally or physically comical . the plot strand of the young bride force to get marry under the threat of rape be particularly offensive and what be laughable be the expertly millennial sex that this putative virgin enjoy on her wedding night . one wonder exactly how much kosashvilli know about real life rather than what he have glean from third rate hollywood picture . our israeli friend be not the only one to have have bafflingly positive reaction to this film while cahiers du cinema compare it to scorsese . not even the turgid hackwork churn out by marty in the past ten year be anywhere near as bad a gift from above . a measure of how messy the film be that you be watch it for a full before it become apparent that most of the character be member of the one family . fundamental of plot structure . there be a lot of good cinema come about of israel at the moment and such a raphael nadjeri avanim and ronit elkabetz prendre femme and the continue cinema of amos gitai . gift from above however be awful rubbish that make even poor israeli film like nir bergman broken wing seem watchable . avoid .
