CGiii Comment

One of the finest films - ever.

This proves that you don't need a massive budget to achieve brilliance.

Laughter and tears, cringes and winces - this has it all - and some bloody good acting.

A triumph.

He tried to commit suicide when he was rejected by his boyfriend and his great competitor became renowned and recognized as number one in the field of Proust.
