I first saw this wonderful film just after it was released and I fell in love with it. This does come at some cost though because attempting to describe it to anybody almost always has the other person looking very sceptical and a little worried at my enthusiasm for a film with this subject matter. Better that you view the film not knowing much about it so it can work it's magic without prejudice.
The music in the film plays a big part in making this very unusual film such a rewarding experience. It was my first introduction to both Sarah McLachlan & Delerium. It is definitely in my top ten favourite movies.
