My delight in seeing this film---Gloomy Sunday--was that I did not need the sub titles being that I speak German. However, as a film, it is quite good. The twists near the end will truly blow your mind. I will not give that away. Suffice it to say it is a great love story ( like some old ones) with new twists and turns. It started in Australia and by word of mouth spread to this country (US) after 2 years. Word of mouth now has it in many local venues. Well worthwhile---und if du sprechen deutsch--so goot. It is subtitled---but, knowing the language there are more nuances in the actual dialogue. The sub titles are good though. Bill Hahn |

My understanding of Austrian German is quite good. As said, the point was the film. As to language ---Hahn is Rooster. So I am not your Geherte Herr Hen. I think you laid an egg here--while we are speaking of hens. Seriously now, has the film been seen and what are the thoughts on it? Bill Hahn aka Rooster |

You, however, have claimed to know the language so well I am surprised at the errors. Let us speak of the film----Is das nicht gut? Guten Abend Bill H |
