i have to say this and this be the first movie i be review on here i do not finish watch . i mean . i couldnt continue . no matter how adamant i be for watch thing until the bitter end and the ballad of the sad café prove no match to this viewer . vanessa redgrave star a the strange woman in town who do thing like walk through the river with a full set of clothes on . anyways and . a long lost relative come to visit and he a midget and well and that as far a i get . what the heck be the point of all of this . i do not even bother to wait for michael carradine to come on and a i be already pummel senseless by the combination of the slow script and have to deal with a midget in a dramatic role . i call this coffee table cinema . the type of cinema that appeal to just a scant few of you and but the others just stay away .
