Save your money it wasn;t that good a film. It was reasnably good but it was trying to be art... it's a 3/5 effort. Which means you'd probably give it a caca.

One or two scene are nice.

Victor,I really wanted to like "the Red Violin". It seems at first to have everything: a sweeping panorama of 300 years of music history, machincations, violence, grief, greed, intrigue, romance- even an exciting slow taxi ride to an instrument auction, but it simultaneously it's drippy sentimental and more like a loose sequence of contrived goofy vignettes. The climatic auction and the revelation of why the violin is red are just not enough. Violins do produce strong feelings in a quite small number of people, and the concept of trying top make an exciting, dramatic epic about a violin is doomed to these contrivances of heightened cirmstances.
"The Red Violin" should have been an ABC miniseries called, "Strung Out: Obsession, Greed, and Murder for no Particular Reason".
Deciding on wherther to apply "Ka ka" or "Ca ca" to it will be the least worry!
Cheers,
It still remains a BIG Ca CA!

But it was for my son - "Spiderman", so no biggie. Not too bad a track record given the number I've received.I third the sentiment for Red Violin. At least they made the effort, but just didn't have the chops.
