This is a complete waste of time. The information that is given is completly useless and not worth the amount of time it takes to sit through this, not to mention the amount of money you are about to spend. And don't even think of using it as a
teaching utensil, all but the most driven students will... more info

segments repeatedly for... more info

This movie is totally not what I expected, and I am very glad it is not! It is a funny story with good screen shots of Jean-Michel and his co-stars. Not a documentary but a movie worth watching again and again. You will be pleased.
one might take notice of the Kid Creole performance...looks very... more info

Customer Review:

Claerly, the man who inspired the fancy-overrated-rich-and-famous Sebastião Salgado. But Eugene was an artist in the pure sense,... more info

Anyway, she is not an... more info

I was a bit weary to pick this up because I wasn't sure just what would be included, both in the feature as well as in the way of extras.
