Purely Joyful Movie!

Good start, but then it gets ruined

Fantastic!

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

A brilliant and touching TV documentary about the singing career of Jacques Brel, beginning with his childhood in Belgium. Amazing theatrical performances of songs along with interviews illustrate biographical points. The film does a great job of bringing out the intensity of the songs and the passionately idealistic nature of the singer.
