"Tykwer uses the language of a thriller film to convey a sense of metaphysical dread, making it impossible to relax even when his characters are dashing along on ice skates, having a night on the town, or making love... [He] seamlessly laces together the commonplace and abstract." more... |
| Film Journal International |
"...confirms that Tom Tykwer is one of the most assured and effective young filmmakers from abroad storming our shores." more... |
