This movie has garnered a number of awards (about 6?!) ... and nominations.
(e.g. Best Cinematography and Best Direction, 2000 Bavarian Film Awards)
Does anyone know the complete list of awards?

wow ... it has been re-released in US.
;)
I have just watched the movie, and I actually like the music very much!!!

Pardon my ignorance, I did NOT know the history to the music/song only until I have watched the movie, and later decided to surf the web for more info!
Now, I know.

What I like about the movie
-- Definitely the music/song!!!
-- Complexity of human relationship and love ...

I only have 1 question,
-- there are 3 German words (I think, or is it Hungarian) that are NOT translated in the subtitles (somewhen near the last half of the movie), probably because it was difficult to capture the essence.

I wonder if anyone has watched and could recall the 3 words and tell me the meaning.
Thanks. ;)

In sum, I recommend the movie.
